About this home

A Rare Opportunity to live on the Coveted Tilley Pond Park with Sweeping Park & Water views. Beautifully designed for effortless living & entertaining, offering a rare blend of natural beauty, walkability, & coastal town charm. On the Pond - where mornings begin with coffee, peaceful water views and evenings end with sunsets reflecting off the park. Stroll along an idyllic street to downtown Darien's charming shops & restaurants in minutes, or walk just steps to the train for an easy commute to NYC. Spend the afternoon at the park, bike to one Darien's two beautiful beaches then stroll to town. Vaulted ceilings at the front and rear create a light-filled, open atmosphere, while expansive windows frame the beauty of Tilley Pond. Unwind in the tranquil family room, prepare meals in the chef's kitchen & gather by the fireplace to watch the game. The floor plan is seamless for entertaining, while the backyard & deck offer the perfect setting for al fresco dining. Working from home it offers a bright office at the front of the house overlooking the park.
