Greenwich Home Built By Former Bloomingdale's Chairman For Sale

GREENWICH, CT — Located just off Round Hill Road at 33 Langhorne Lane in Greenwich sits a stunning contemporary custom home built by the former legendary chairman and CEO of Bloomingdale's Marvin Traub.

The home, which is listed by Tory Thorman of Sotheby’s International Realty – Greenwich Brokerage, is up for sale at $1.69 million.

According to the listing description, the 4,282 square-foot home features a dramatic open plan living/dining room with soaring ceilings, a double-sided stone fireplace, floor-to-ceiling windows, sliding glass doors and extra wide board flooring.

The kitchen with center isle opens to a cozy family room with built-in bookcases, wet bar closet and fireplace, according to the listing description. There are four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a partial bath.

The 6.47 acre property offers privacy and recreational opportunities with a pool, tennis court, pond and enclosed garden.

According to a story in the New York Times following Traub's death in 2012, Traub helped turn Bloomingdale’s "from a stodgy Upper East Side family department store into a trendsetting international showcase of style and showmanship in the 1970s and ’80s."

Traub climbed through the ranks, and became president of Bloomingdale's in 1969, and later chairman and chief executive in 1978, the NYT said, noting that he welcomed Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip during America's Bicentennial festivities in 1976.
