Combining a New England country farmhouse exterior and an open, completely modern interior, this Tokeneke Association Darien home was custom-built with contemporary living in mind. Sitting on a two-acre hilltop site, the house overlooks a charming Tokeneke neighborhood on 3 sides, and two acres of conservation woodland on the other. The first floor, large, airy kitchen, with Italian Carrera marble counters, connects directly with an even larger family room, and a 300 square foot covered porch, perfect for barbecues and outdoor dinners. Upstairs are five bedrooms all en-suite, including the master bedroom, with two walk-in closets and a luxurious soaking tub with gorgeous views. Special features include a HEATED driveway and a unique air purification system. Approved POOL site (see rendering in picture gallery). On-site visits are easily arranged or make an appointment for a live FaceTime walkthrough video. Don't miss the professionally produced video attached to this listing. There is still an opportunity to customize the home according to the buyer's taste. Totally private and utterly amazing, this spectacular home blends the best of country and contemporary living.
