About this home

Steeped in history yet thoughtfully reimagined for modern living, The Barnacle is a beautifully renovated 1910 barn in the heart of Darien. Renovated in 2019, this one-of-a-kind residence blends timeless character with contemporary design. The dramatic great room showcases soaring 30-foot cathedral ceilings, exposed wood beams, an oversized picture window, and a classic fireplace anchoring the open living and dining spaces. The chic kitchen flows seamlessly for effortless entertaining and everyday living. A desirable first-floor primary suite opens directly to the bluestone patio, while two additional bedrooms upstairs include one with a private balcony. Professionally landscaped grounds offer a level lawn, privacy, and inviting outdoor spaces. Enjoy easy access to Darien's vibrant town center, train, and shopping, while nearby Rowayton offers waterfront charm, a weekly farmers market, and the celebrated Shakespeare on the Sound performances.
