Classic New England Colonial

DARIEN, CT

Their specific request for the home was clear: it needed to be a welcoming sanctuary, a place where the matriarch could comfortably sit and read with her grandchildren, fostering cherished memories. This desire informed every design decision, from the choice of plush seating to the carefully curated furnishings that invite relaxation and connection.

A true focal point of the home is the exquisite Haberdashery porcelain light fixture. More than just an illumination source, this statement piece serves to visually connect the entry with the upper floors, drawing the eye upwards. The design intent was to emphasize that the stunning sea views, so prominent from the ground floor, are equally captivating from the second story rooms, creating a seamless visual flow throughout the home.

Nestled on a sprawling estate, this magnificent colonial home offers breathtaking sea views of Scott Point, a picturesque vista that changes with the light and seasons. Designed to accommodate a bustling family of five and their beloved grandchildren, this residence is a testament to timeless elegance and thoughtful functionality.
