Cathedral ceilings and timeless wooden beams create a warm and welcoming ambiance in the formal living and family rooms, while the light-filled eat-in kitchen invites long breakfasts, late-night conversations, and everything in between. The flexible floor plan adapts to your lifestyle, offering a private office with full bath-or guest room on the main level. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom is complemented by 3 additional bedrooms, creating space for everyone-whether for family, guests, or personal retreats. This home is equally at ease hosting a lively dinner party or enjoying a quiet Sunday morning with coffee on the private patio, which seamlessly extends your living space outdoors to enjoy fresh air in comfort and style. The separate cottage is a rare find, complete with its own entrance, kitchen, full bath, sauna, and expansive deck overlooking the property. Ideal for extended stays, creative pursuits, or simply as a personal sanctuary. The extensive upper lawn, both sunny and private, offers ample level space for gardens and family games. Set on over an acre, the grounds offer space to breathe while still being just minutes from the dining, shopping, and the conveniences of Darien, New Canaan, and Norwalk-providing both privacy and unmatched accessibility. A character-filled home blending warmth, flexibility, and lifestyle, all in an extraordinary location.
