Stunning ! … Full Renovation And Expansion In Premier Location…Uncompromised Quality…Meticulously Designed With A Casual Elegance Perfect For Today. Set on a beautiful private 2-acre level lot, this 6-bedroom 5 bath luxury home was completely redesigned, renovated, rebuilt and expanded. Every detail was well thought out, with no expense spared. Filled with great open spaces, high-end finishes, and flooded with natural light, it truly stands alone. Custom details abound…a tasteful hand-painted foyer floor design welcomes you and compliments select 6-10” white oak flooring throughout. Custom details include: moldings, fireplaces, built-in cabinetry, decorative finishes, hidden storage areas, lighting, ceiling heights, fixtures, high-end appliances, hardware and many more unique features that all make this home so extraordinary! The landscaping is exquisite, with charming terraces that offer both privacy and a perfect place to relax and entertain, while the expansive yard is ideal for any type of play and pool ready. There are four beautiful bedrooms (all en-suite) on the second level. Each bedroom has ample closet space and plenty of room for a desk or reading area. Enter the Master Bedroom Suite, which features large closets, built-in dressers, a beautiful custom bathroom, and balcony veranda overlooking the backyard — a wonderful private retreat.
The expansive kitchen is a definite focal point of this beautiful home, complete with a custom marble island with seating for five, high-end custom cabinetry, top of the line appliances, a six-burner Viking range with custom pot-filler, gourmet spice drawers, double dishwashers, warming drawer and three pantries. A large eat-in kitchen area with French doors opens to a beautiful patio and yard. The adjacent family room with custom beamed-ceiling, beautiful windows, and wonderful push-touch storage cabinets, offers additional space for entertaining, game/movie night or quiet time. The spacious dining room, complete with a custom “hidden” full bar with bar fridge, completes this dream kitchen and entertaining space. Following is a spectacular great room, situated perfectly alongside the dining room. This room features high ceilings, eight-foot transom windows, a custom fireplace and surround, and oversized French doors that open to an entertainment terrace and yard. The large, private office/study offers another fireplace, surround and custom crafted bookshelves. The flexible bonus room, off the family room — perfect as a first floor bedroom, playroom, second den/office, or gym — completes this first floor of wonderful living space. The lower level has separate living quarters with a large bedroom, full bath, separate entrance AND a lovely outdoor private sitting area. It is a perfect retreat for visitors, in-laws, or an au-pair. This home really does have it all and more, if ever needed. The third floor currently has a sitting room and exercise space with an additional 1,000 square feet of already insulated and piped for a full bathroom, making the future possibilities endless — more bedrooms, office space, home theater, full gym, etc. This home is centrally located — just a few quick minutes to downtown Darien and nearby New Canaan. Both charming towns offer great shopping, wonderful restaurants, and Darien’s #1 ranked public schools. Convenient express trains to NYC are close by, as is Cherry Lawn Park and Nature Center, with playgrounds and tennis courts — or Waveny Park with expansive walking trails, picnic fields and wonderful year-round events. This property is EXTRAORDINARY, this home is BEAUTIFUL, and it is THE Quintessential Darien Property – not to be missed, and must be seen before it is GONE!
