About This Home

As of December 2021

This charming colonial on a quiet, private street has been completely renovated by its current owners. Improvements to this perfect family home include all new kitchen and bathrooms, windows, crown molding, built-ins, plantation shutters and window treatments (many of which are remaining), central air and heat. The kitchen bar is perfect for entertaining, doing homework, or enjoying a casual family dinner. Enjoy cold winter evenings around the fireplace in the cozy den. French sliding doors from the family room lead to a generous sized deck and a new granite patio meeting all your outdoor living needs. Completing the picture is a level, fenced backyard with professional landscaping and adjacent Nature Conservancy land beyond**
Located within walking distance of Holmes Elementary School and close to everything Darien has to offer. The private street offers block parties, Halloween parades and staggered picket gates, creating a safe haven for play. More than a must see, 18 Park Lane is a have to have!
**Happy to report, not a drop of water in the basement for any of the storms.
