About This Home

As of July 2021

Absolutely adorable 3 bedroom, 2 full bath home right in the center of Darien. Completely renovated by a local builder in 2006, this charming home offers space, light and convenience. Original details such as the stone fireplace in the living room and built-in corner cabinet in the formal dining room blend seamlessly with the renovated eat-in kitchen and office with full bath (or 4th bedroom) on the first floor. Large second floor master with huge walk-in closet and 2 add’l bedrooms share the updated bathroom with new vanity and backsplash. The recently replaced deck overlooks the almost ½ acre of lush, private, professionally landscaped yard. Many recent improvements including new furnace and hot water heater (see attachment). Steps from train, Tilley Pond Park and downtown Darien with all of its shops, restaurants, parades and events.
