About This Home

As of June 2025

Impeccably designed, this stylish 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath 1920s Colonial-located on one of Darien's most coveted streets-is a rare and special find. Thoughtfully updated to reflect a modern, chic sensibility, the home also honors its original architectural integrity. The main level features an open-concept kitchen and living area, seamlessly blending style and functionality. A bright kitchen with modern appliances and sleek finishes, these spaces are ideal for today's lifestyle and open directly to the outdoor living area, creating a perfect environment for entertaining or everyday relaxation. Moving upstairs, you will find four spacious bedrooms, a charming fifth sleeping area, three full bathrooms, and a refined additional room-ideal for a Peloton, reading nook, or peaceful retreat. The generous, partially renovated lower level provides flexible space for a playroom, movie nights, or epic sleepovers. Two unfinished sections offer practical storage solutions, including ski gear lockers and ample space for seasonal items. Located within the desirable Noroton Manor Association, residents enjoy water access, private tennis courts, and a vibrant community lifestyle. Continuous sidewalks lead directly to the elementary school and public beach, where you'll find paddle and tennis courts, junior sailing, walking paths, a playground, and a seasonal beach pavilion with food service. Don't miss the chance to make this coastal retreat your own!
