The house known as The Boulders at 432 Field Point Road in the Belle Haven section of Greenwich was for sale when this was first posted in 2016. 

The property was listed with Halstead Property. It is no longer for sale. 

The house is a designated landmark with the Greenwich Historical Society. 

Nelson B. Mead (1860-1929) is said to be the origin owner. He was the elder son of Augustus and Elizabeth L. (Mead) Mead. Nelson married Anna R. Mead in 1881. 

Among his many talents and positions in town were real estate developer, comptroller of the Town of Greenwich, representative in the Connecticut State Legislature, president of the Greenwich Library Association and president of the Van Arsdale Boot & Shoe Company.

We received this from Greenwich Historical Society Archivist Christopher Shields. (Greenwich Time: Spring Edition, 2012, Page 21):
