 "The Atelier at Compo" was once the studio where famed artist Henry Patrick Raleigh created some of his 20,000 illustrations. The exceptionally private three bedroom two bath home on 2.04 acres and includes a 328 square foot free standing studio/office equipped with heating and air conditioning that is also approved for business use, and a detached two car garage.

This historical home is close to all the fine amenities that Westport has to offer- yet so private that you won't even catch a glimpse of another home from any of its living areas, and "The Original Atelier" is exceptional in its placement on the property as well.

Remodeled throughout to perfection, the kitchen and screened porch are situated so that one may take in the sunrise, while the master bedroom and private terrace enjoy the scenic sunsets.  

The private retreat with underground utilities includes three structures; the original studio which is now a three bedroom home, a separate office, and a two car garage.

The home's history began circa 1913 with Mr. Raleigh, and fondly remembered as an integral part of the beginnings on the artist colony in Westport along with George Wright, Rose O'Neill and Frederick Dorr Steele, Raleigh was considered to be the most prolific American Illustrator of the Golden Age of Illustration.

Raleigh's published works were included in over 500 stories in the Saturday Evening Post that were penned by the likes of Agatha Christie F Scott Fitzgerald, Somerset Maugham, and Sinclair Lewis, and he was well known and respected for his fashionable illustrations of lavish parties and socialites in the Gatsby Era.

...and its storied history shall continue. It's now time for new owners to write the next chapter
