Property Description
Tucked in the heart of Darien's coveted Noroton Manor neighborhood, this timeless 1926 home is filled with warmth, character, and endless potential. Set on a beautiful flat half-acre with a detached garage, the property offers the perfect blend of charm, space, and opportunity in one of Darien's most beloved locations, just moments from Weed Beach and Great Island. From the moment you step into the inviting foyer, the home unfolds with an exceptional circular floor plan designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. A spacious eat-in kitchen opens beautifully into the surrounding living spaces, while the oversized living room, formal dining room, family room, and dedicated office create an ideal balance of openness and privacy. Upstairs, four bedrooms and two full baths are thoughtfully spread across the second and third floors, offering wonderful flexibility for family, guests, work-from-home space, or future expansion possibilities. Outside, the expansive yard provides endless room to play, gather, garden, or simply enjoy the peaceful setting. Residents of the Noroton Manor Association enjoy access to two Har-Tru tennis courts, a private sandy beach, and water access to Holly Pond - an incredibly special lifestyle amenity woven into this cherished coastal community. Rich with original character and architectural charm, this is the kind of home that rarely comes to market.
