About This Home

As of May 2023

In-town living with land, pool and privacy does not come along very often...This expanded and renovated, quintessential New England colonial on almost 1.5 acres adjacent to Land Trust is the rare home that allows you to really have it all. Renovated eat-in kitchen, large family room with built-ins overlooking the patio and heated gunite pool. Formal dining room, formal living room with built-ins and fireplace, separate office, mudroom, and powder room all flow to and from one another beautifully on the first floor. Primary Suite with walk-in closet, built-ins, plus private bath with separate vanities, as well as four additional bedrooms and two full baths are all on the second floor. Rear staircase from kitchen leads to the bonus room over the garage with vaulted ceilings and window seat. All less than .5 mile from train, Tilley Pond Park, downtown Darien and the soon to be completed Corbin District. Please note that the listing includes both 125 Leroy and 127 Leroy.
