The Collection
The Cottages at Wire Mill is a gated, new-construction 55+ active-adult community in Stamford, Connecticut, offering nine deeded single-family homes. Set in North Stamford, the community combines sophisticated contemporary farmhouse architecture, thoughtfully curated outdoor spaces, and dual primary suites for active adults seeking a more effortless way to live.
The Residences
Every home offers two full primary suites — one on each floor. The first-floor suite, with its en-suite bath and walk-in closet, lets you keep daily living on one floor when you choose; the second-floor suite adds a spa bath with freestanding soaking tub. Stay on the first floor, host on the second, or share the home across generations.
Every residence includes a fenced backyard with a concrete patio, fully irrigated lawn, paver driveway with electric snow-melt heating, and a private side garage entry.
Over 3,244 square feet of living area — including a sun-filled three-season room and breakfast nook — plus a walk-up attic, full basement with a 10′ × 15′ unfinished security room, and oversized garage that bring total usable area to nearly 5,500 square feet.

Smart Energy
Each residence is planned with intelligent energy infrastructure designed to support modern living today and easier upgrades tomorrow — from backup power readiness to future EV, solar, and battery options.
The EcoFlow smart panel helps organize the home’s electrical foundation so essential energy upgrades can be planned with less disruption. It is a practical, homeowner-friendly way to support comfort, preparedness, and long-term flexibility.
Designed to make future backup power options easier to connect, helping support important areas of the home during outages.
Planned with future electric vehicle charging and solar energy options in mind, so upgrades can be easier to coordinate.
Optional app-based tools can help homeowners better understand household energy use without needing to manage complex equipment.
A more organized electrical foundation can reduce the need for disruptive retrofits as home energy needs evolve.
Final capabilities may vary by residence and selected options. The project team can confirm available backup power, EV charging, solar, and battery configurations during the purchase process.
