A lovely Garrison colonial surrounded by stone walls is beautifully situated on 3.62 acres with a piece of the property in Darien. A very private setting. The grounds are exquisite with old woods and evergreens that create a summer canopy and winter refuge. The gently sloping land is void of rock-out cropping and wetlands, and the portion situated in Darien allows for beach and other Darien amenities. Two additional buildings on the property include a 2-story 1,000 square foot heated barn which accommodates 3 cars, accessed by a separate driveway with a full turnaround, and a 450 square foot concrete block storage shed for equipment and firewood. The home is spacious with 4 bedrooms, large living room with fireplace, hardwood floors throughout. Quality materials have been used and no expenses spared, including cedar siding and cedar shutters, a new high energy cast iron boiler and hot water system within the last 3 years. The roofs (40-year) and leaf-proof gutters were replaced on all 3 buildings within the last 10 years. A dry walk-out full cellar, partially finished with tile floors, knotty pine walls, brick fireplace. Commercial grade wood shop equipment is available for extra purchase. Extra large attached 2-car garage with direct access to the kitchen, and a large enclosed blue stone porch with access to a brick patio surrounded by lush vegetation. Nature lovers will enjoy the walking paths with benches throughout this very, very unique property.
