A shared dock is currently being built for the four properties in this enclave, reachable via a dedicated pathway that leads directly to the water at Pear Tree Point Road. It is the ultimate amenity for those who wish to embrace the coastal lifestyle. This is a rare invitation to secure a foothold in a legendary location without the wait.
Bring your vision to Long Neck Point Road and watch your dream home rise from the ground up this season. For a private viewing of the site and a review of the architectural renderings, please reach out to the listing agent Keiley Fuller to walk the property and here more.
Tokeneke, located between Long Island Sound and downtown Darien, is a coastal and residential Darien neighborhood with winding lanes and private beach associations. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Tokeneke Beach Club entrance on Tokeneke Road, where sail masts, tennis courts, and summer foot traffic set the tone. Shingle-style and Colonial homes sit behind stone walls and mature trees, with water glimpses along the coves. The shoreline reads as quiet and maritime, with small docks and pocket beaches. Nearby, The Goose American Bistro & Bar, Darien Library, and the Darien Arts Center act as cultural anchors beyond the gates. Commuter rhythm runs through Noroton Heights Station, while the coast keeps the pace measured.
