About This Home

As of January 2026

Set on one of Darien's most iconic streets, 10 Prospect Avenue blends historic charm with modern sophistication. Ideally located near town, beaches, parks, top-rated schools, and within walking distance of the future Corbin District, this remodeled and expanded home offers the best of past and present. Classic details-10 ft ceilings, wide hallways, original fireplaces-are paired with updated finishes and thoughtful design that bring light, flow, and comfort throughout. The spacious living and dining rooms create a welcoming setting for gatherings, while the modern open kitchen seamlessly connects to casual family areas. Multiple indoor and outdoor spaces, including a private yard and patio with an outdoor gas firepit and landscape lighting, provide endless opportunities for entertaining or quiet relaxation. A dedicated home office, generous bedrooms, and flexible floor plan adapt beautifully to today's lifestyle needs. Every detail reflects a rare balance of character, convenience, and comfort. 10 Prospect Avenue is more than a residence-it's a chance to own a piece of Darien's history while enjoying a modern coastal lifestyle just an hour from New York City.
