Hop, Skip and Jump Into Town

Are you fed up with racking up miles on your car without ever leaving town?  Here is a fantastic, brand new house I discovered this weekend – and it’s bang slap in the middle of Darien!

This Greek Revival style home is a hop, skip and a jump from Tilley Pond Park – think picnics in the summer and skating in the winter -  and a short walk to the train and shops.  You may never use your car again.

The builder pulled out all the stops with his finish details – stunning period moldings, beautiful hardwood floors, and a well-designed flow to the rooms.  There’s a small parlor off to the left of the foyer, which would make an elegant library with the addition of built-in bookshelves.  The dining room has moldings on the ceiling, as well as a chair rail.  The kitchen (GE Café appliances) and family room are full of light, with plenty of room for counter seating, family dining as well as a big area for relaxing in front of the wood fire.  The fenced backyard has a lovely stone patio just a couple of steps down from the family room.

Upstairs the four bedrooms and three bathrooms have tons of closet space, and the finished basement has a large recreation room as well as space for a home office.  There’s even room to install an elevator!

To take a look inside 69 Sedgwick Avenue in Darien, contact Maggie Marchesi at Kelly Real Estate.  (203) 961-9596.  The asking price is $1,499,999.
