Longbow Capital Founder Lists $16 Million Litchfield County Estate

Set on more than 300 acres between Roxbury and Bridgewater, Conn., the multibuilding compound and farm comfortably accommodates 25 people—or more than a thousand for a pumpkin-launching contest.

When Thomas (Terry) Fitzgerald, founder and managing partner of Longbow Capital Partners, bought a plot of land in Bridgewater, Conn., in 1993, he and his wife, Libby, were looking for a “counterpoint to our children’s life in the city,” he says. “One that would be defined by nature and all manner of outdoor activities.”

The land they settled on had been owned by the same family for more than half a century and consisted of about 200 acres and a 10,000-square-foot house.
