Darien Connecticut Real Estate

Located on the shore of the Long Island Sound, Darien lies within the New York City metropolitan area including Westchester County.  Lacking an industrial base, this primarily residential community evolved into a center for corporate offices for giants like Exxon, Georgia-Pacific, and Brinks.  Harmonizing country and seaside living, Darien is considered by many to be one of the state’s most charming towns.  Rolling pastures, woodland, and waterfront blend to provide a scenic background for striking architecture, from contemporaries to lovely colonials and gracious country manors.  Many of the recreational opportunities in the Darian area are centered around private clubs and equestrian activities.  Residents of the town’s picturesque neighborhoods enjoy beaches, a public marina, and lush parks filled with outstanding facilities.
