About this home

This exceptional property is set at the end of a quiet, coveted tree-lined lane, offering a rare sense of privacy and tranquility. Spanning two flat, park-like acres framed by mature trees, the approach unfolds through a storybook stone wall, creating an immediate sense of arrival. The classic Colonial residence is gracefully set back from the road, blending timeless architecture with a serene natural setting. This is a property defined elegance, and the enduring appeal of one of Darien's most desirable private roads. Inside the home it is bright and sunny with large windows. The floor plan offers excellent space for family gathering and entertaining with scenic views of the property.
