About this home

Turnkey living in the heart of Darien. Offering over 3,500 square feet of beautifully refreshed living space, this 5-bedroom Colonial combines generous proportions, exceptional outdoor space and one of Darien's most convenient locations, just steps from downtown's newest development and the train. Originally renovated and expanded in 2009 and thoughtfully improved ever since, the home underwent an extensive refresh in 2026 designed for effortless, move-in ready living. The expansive, open floor plan is anchored by an impressive great room and offers wonderful flexibility across four finished levels. Five bedrooms and 3.5 baths are complemented by finished third-floor bonus space and a versatile lower level currently configured as a mudroom, gym, and wine room. Outside is the home's unexpected showstopper. Set on a beautifully landscaped 0.40-acre property, the remarkably spacious and private backyard feels like its own retreat, complete with a stone patio, pool, and six-foot privacy fencing. An incredible amount of outdoor space for a home so close to the center of town. This is a rare opportunity to have it all: space, privacy, convenience, and truly turnkey living just a few minutes walk from all that downtown Darien has to offer.

Recent comparable sales

The 5 closest recent sales to this home, nearest match first — same building where possible, then the surrounding streets, widening only when there is nothing closer. These are recorded sale prices from the MLS, not estimates. No automated valuation is shown, because what a home is worth depends on condition, layout and timing that a formula cannot see — call John at 203·883·3399 to read them properly against this home.

5 comparable sales — median $2,050,000, ranging $1,135,000 to $2,950,000.

Public record
