Secluded, modern hilltop retreat overlooking Holly Pond and the salt marsh. Nearly 3 acres on a private road adjacent to Darien Land Trust property and Weed Beach Park. Designed by David Austin for his personal residence in 2003. This 5-bedroom 3.5 bath home has been totally renovated by the current owners. A pool, dock, stone patio with gas fire pit, an additional wood burning fire pit, and perennial gardens complete the stunning outdoor spaces set dramatically into the natural contours of the property. With its kitchen and bar set up for entertaining the downstairs spaces take full advantage of the views of Holly Pond. Abundant wildlife and magnificent sunsets make this such a special offering. Easy access to school, shopping and commuting.
