53 Goodwives River Rd, Darien, CT 06820

Timeless stone home overlooking Goodwives River offers charm, character and convenience to the discerning buyer. This 1930's beauty was completely restored and renovated in 2003 but retains all its special elements including casement windows, slate roof, 9' ceilings, and floor to ceiling stone fireplaces. The recently refreshed kitchen with Carrara marble counters, island, top grade appliances and wine fridge flows seamlessly into the family room with coffered ceiling and fireplace. Windows on three sides of the Living Room with wet bar take advantage of the natural view of the private side yard, and opens to the patio and deck - a perfect situation for entertaining. Tranquil Master suite with fireplace, sitting room, and bath with double sinks, soaking tub and shower is a welcome sanctuary, and all other en-suite bedrooms have updated baths and hard wood floors. Amazing light throughout. The 1+ acre property is completely fenced. Gated access to the river leads to Gorham's Pond allowing for kayaking and SUPing in the summer, and ice skating in the winter. Short walk or bike ride to the beach. Minutes from town and train. A very special home waiting for its next lucky owner.

Stylish. Welcoming. Gracious. This 1932 Old World style home has loads of character from the stone facade to the multiple paned windows and doors and mahogany front door. The beautiful stonework moves inside to the family room with impressive stone fireplace and the upstairs master bedroom where there is a second massive stone fireplace in the sitting area. Meticulous detail in the elegantly renovated baths, granite kitchen, dining room window seat and sunny living room with wet bar and doors leading to the wraparound patio and deck. The top two floors house the 5 bedrooms. This vintage beauty sits high above the Goodwives River on over an acre tucked in an enchanting setting surrounded by lush landscaping.
