About this home

Charming bungalow-style home offering easy one-floor living, abundant natural light, high ceilings and character throughout. A welcoming front porch sets the tone, while freshly painted interiors provide a bright, fresh backdrop. The spacious great room features a striking stone fireplace, built-in bookcases and generous proportions for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen enjoys views across the expansive, level backyard, and three bedrooms and two full baths complete the main level. The walk-out lower level adds exceptional flexibility with a family room featuring French doors opening directly to the patio, plus an additional bedroom and full bath. Turn-key and ready to enjoy today, the home also offers exciting expansion potential and flexibility to grow over time. A standout feature is the convenient location-just a short walk to Noroton Heights shopping, restaurants, amenities and train station, as well as Middlesex Middle School and Darien High School. An extensive network of neighborhood streets offers additional opportunities for walking and outdoor activity. A place to call HOME!

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 $1,825,000, ranging $1,350,000 to $2,870,000.

Public record
