About This Home

As of September 2024

This traditional cape cod, with a beautiful front and back yard, has been lovingly maintained throughout the years by the same family and is now ready for new owners to make it their own. Through the front door is the bright open-concept living room that has a brick fireplace and acts as a partition to another space that can be used as a small office. Formal dining room is adjacent to the living room. Large main bedroom on the first floor has multiple windows that bring in a ton of natural light. Down the hallway you will find a full bathroom and closet. The sun-filled kitchen leads to the laundry room and a separate entrance to the front and garage. You will also find a deck and private yard that is perfect for entertaining. One bedroom on the second floor has built-in drawers, hidden closets and a desk. While the other bedroom is larger and captures light throughout the day. Two car garage. Unfinished basement with a new water heater and furnace. Highly desirable area and close proximity to Noroton Heights train station, Darien Commons, Baker Park, shops and restaurants. There is lots of potential for an addition or simply update with modern amenities. Don’t miss this amazing opportunity!
