Consider the CT coast from Guilford to Old Lyme. You can do very nicely with that budget here.

Hudson Valley. I was up there this summer and saw some listings in that price range.

If you want to be on the water you could look at Stamford, CT.


Stamford- No. too industrial.


I live in Old Greenwich, but I think Stamford could work because there are nice areas on the water and you can’t get on the water in this area for $1.5M outside of Stamford. Also, it’s close to Greenwich, so if you don’t mind driving a bit it could work.

What do you want from a country house, OP? Do you want to be in or near a village, or totally isolated? Do you prefer woods or water?

No, Stamford is horrible. sorry. I grew up in nearby Greenwich and it is definitely not a place for a "country" house, its very urban.

Where would you look for a country house with a $1.5M budget? Primary residence is in Manhattan (UES), so we want something within east driving distance to NYC.
