This gem of a home, in a prime Darien location, is ideal for both entertaining and casual living! As the charming entry sweeps you in, you immediately are surprised by the vaulted ceilings in the spacious living room which is centered around a soaring wood burning fireplace, clad in shiplap and marble. The library serves both as a place to read a book or grab a drink while entertaining in the adjoining family room which is flooded with light and made cozy by a gas fireplace. The dining area is spacious enough for large gatherings and opens to the updated and well-equipped kitchen, with adjacent mudroom and laundry area. Upstairs, the primary suite has a spacious dressing area, an updated bath, and a treasured balcony overlooking the property and providing tranquil sunset views. There are three additional bedrooms, an updated, full bath and the most picturesque, interior balcony where you can grab a moment away. Outside the patio is a favorite gathering spot and overlooks the fully fenced yard with plenty of space to play catch or kick a soccer ball. Getting your steps in, playing fetch with your dog, or simply enjoying the peaceful privacy afforded by Woodland Park Nature Preserve adds to the allure of this home. 1-car garage. Walk to schools, restaurants and the train, this fresh and modern cape is one you shouldn't miss.
