About This Home

As of September 2022

Welcome to Shields Road at Middlesex Farm, one of the most sought-after private enclaves within the Darien community.

Recently renovated/painted, the house is complete with custom built-ins and moldings, Carrera marble finishes in kitchen and baths, updated systems, newly finished floors, new roof and new driveway. Immediately enjoy living here without the worry of renovations, but be assured there is potential room for expansion to add an additional bedroom above the oversized two-car garage. No wetlands. Underground power lines ensure no disruption of service. Come visit to see the open spaces, specimen tree landscaping, 2 tennis courts, mail / club house next to the 3+ acre open space conservation field area. Shields Road at Middlesex Farm is a hidden gem convenient to all Darien has to offer- award winning schools, picturesque beaches and parks, shops, restaurants and trains.
