Spaces Real Estate is a family-owned boutique brokerage serving Westport and all of Fairfield County. It was founded by Managing Broker Kathleen McGovern and second-generation Realtor Carrie Klein Perkins, and rooted in the legacy of Virginia Klein, where it all began. Our team has worked side by side since 1991, through every kind of market. We’re known for integrity, transparency, and the close, personal attention every client deserves. Relationships come first. Always. $600 million+ closed in Fairfield County. 1,000+ clients. Consistently among Connecticut’s top-performing luxury teams. It’s been a gift to do what we love, together, with clients who have become friends, and friends who have become family.
Kathleen is fondly referred to as the “Keeper of the Law”. She is the person who presides over all the intricacies that come along with running a successful, well respected brokerage for over 35 years. With her uncompromising attention to detail, she has the ability to make the challenging elements feel easy.
She consistently strives to be the master of her craft. Kathleen’s heartfelt touch can be felt in the behind-the-scenes magic in every one of our 1,000+ success stories over the last 30 years.
Carrie Klein (Perkins) is a second-generation REALTOR® with 35+ Years of experience. Creativity is Carrie’s way of being in the world. She sees the magic in every home, and no detail escapes her eye. She helps buyers envision future transformations and discover intrinsic value. For builders, she transforms garden-variety plans into bold, striking visions - then brings them to life digitally. Never one to lean into trends, Carrie’s projects stand out and often spark new trends in the area, which means she’s constantly reinventing. Her luxury listings are infused with emotive imagery, distinctive copywriting, and a bespoke lifestyle video, produced, directed, and (often) edited by Carrie. Nothing makes her happier than when colleagues, clients, or friends reach out to say, “I knew that listing was yours before I ever saw your name.”
Integrity, drive, and vision have always been Virginia Klein’s calling cards. She is known for her direct communication, her vast knowledge of all things Real Estate, and her unwavering commitment to her client’s best interests. She says, “In 55 years of working in real estate, I can honestly tell you, I have never had a day that I did not love. Making magic for others has always been my mission.”
