Tommy Hilfiger’s Former Greenwich Estate on the Market for $6.8M

Published: August 18, 2018 | By: American Luxury Staff

With Tommy Hilfiger’s name barely fading from the real estate columns following the sale of a large estate in Palm Beach—which changed hands to the tune of $35 million— another property associated with the designer has hit the market. This is business-as-usual for the pop-culture maven and astute businessman; he has two high-end properties up for sale at present, the now-legendary Plaza Hotel penthouse, and an equally daring South Florida mansion, and both have received quite a bit of press.

The latest listing isn’t currently owned by Hilfiger, but he did call the property home up until 2006. The estate is called Appleyard. The just under 10,000 square-foot house on nearly five acres is located in Greenwich, Connecticut, long-time hat-hanging territory for Manhattan’s most successful, and one of the most affluent communities in the country.

A $7 million home on Connecticut’s ‘gold coast’ isn’t a particularly rare bird by virtue of its price point. But this home has the distinction of appearing in Hilfiger-oriented television programming, and it presents the characteristically verdant ideal of Greenwich living.

Within, the Hilfiger design style is absent; a more understated approach predominates…aside from the plum-colored recording studio. The house isn’t heavy on country manor fundamentals—aside from the fieldstone-and-antler pretensions of the double-height great room, its cues are entirely contemporary—and an overall detachment is contrasted with an abundance of wood grain.

And the 1999-built house is comprehensive in its vision of upscale living. A library, solarium, and home theater are among the amenities, and it sits on a 4.66-acre parcel of partially wooded land punctuated by lawns, gardens, a pool and spa, and tennis court.
