About this home

Set on one of Darien's most iconic streets, 10 Prospect Avenue blends historic charm with modern sophistication. Ideally located near town, beaches, parks, top-rated schools, and within walking distance of the future Corbin District, this remodeled and expanded home offers the best of past and present. Classic details-10 ft ceilings, wide hallways, original fireplaces-are paired with updated finishes and thoughtful design that bring light, flow, and comfort throughout. The spacious living and dining rooms create a welcoming setting for gatherings, while the modern open kitchen seamlessly connects to casual family areas. Multiple indoor and outdoor spaces, including a private yard and patio with an outdoor gas firepit and landscape lighting, provide endless opportunities for entertaining or quiet relaxation. A dedicated home office, generous bedrooms, and flexible floor plan adapt beautifully to today's lifestyle needs. Every detail reflects a rare balance of character, convenience, and comfort. 10 Prospect Avenue is more than a residence-it's a chance to own a piece of Darien's history while enjoying a modern coastal lifestyle just an hour from New York City.
