A former Ridgefield restaurant and wine bar within a centrally located mixed-use property has sold for more than $3 million.
Shelton-based Northeast Private Client Group sold the 1.93-acre property at 20 West Lane to a Norwalk-based group of restaurateurs.
The property includes a 6-bedroom, 3.5-bath, single-family residence and the former Bernard’s Restaurant and Sarah’s Wine Bar.
According to Northeast Senior Associate Rich Edwards, the new owners “envision a modern, colonial farmhouse and elegant, yet rustic, wine bar offering New American cuisine as well as tributes to some of Bernard’s French classics.”
The facility will also host catering and events, including weddings.
Edwards and Jeff Wright, along with Senior VP Investments Brad Balletto and Associate Patrick Hegarty, represented the seller and procured the buyer for a mixed-use investment property.
The seller was Sarah and Bernard Bouissou, and the buyer was Norwalk-based restaurateurs Dave Studwell and Rob Moss of Washington Prime and B.J. Lawless of BJ Ryan’s Restaurant Group.
The property is a short walk from the downtown RIdgefield area and close to routes 33, 35, and 7.
