About this home

This beautifully updated four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home sits on the picturesque seven-acre Mather Pond-often compared to Thoreau's Walden Pond-offering a rare blend of tranquility and modern comfort. Thoughtfully renovated by its designer owner, the residence features a versatile layout with custom built-ins, generous storage, and a brand-new gourmet kitchen. Light-filled living spaces balance elegance and warmth, creating an inviting setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The property also offers room for future expansion, giving you the flexibility to tailor it to your needs. Outside, enjoy timeless pursuits like fly fishing, ice skating, gardening, or simply relaxing with a book by the water's edge. Perfectly situated just 2.5 miles from downtown Darien and 3 miles from New Canaan, 63 Dorchester Road combines peaceful seclusion with convenient access to shops, dining, and community amenities. This is a rare opportunity to own a home of modern sophistication in a truly idyllic setting.
