About this home
A rare opportunity to own in the rapidly evolving Noroton Heights neighborhood-where walkability, convenience, and lifestyle converge. Steps from the Noroton Heights train station, restaurants, and everyday conveniences, 281 West Avenue sits at the center of one of Darien's most sought-after and increasingly vibrant areas. This three-bedroom Colonial presents an inviting blend of classic New England character and modern practicality. Hardwood floors, a generous light-filled living room, and a formal dining room create warm, welcoming spaces suited to both everyday living and easy entertaining. The updated kitchen anchors the main level with stainless appliances and a clean, efficient layout. A first-floor sunroom with updated powder room adds a highly usable extension of living space-equally suited as a home office, playroom, or relaxed sitting area. Upstairs, three bedrooms share a renovated full bath. The partially finished lower level provides valuable bonus space-well-suited for a media room, home gym, or dedicated work-from-home setup. Outside, the fenced yard offers ample outdoor space for children, pets, or entertaining. Numerous recent updates have been made to support today's modern, hassle-free lifestyle.
