Convenient and Cozy Antique Cape

Adorable little house in Darien CT, with a fireplace in winter and the beautiful local beaches in the summer. Right across from Trader Joe’s and around the corner from route 1 and Interstate 95, the little house is super convenient to local amenities. Probably the best perk of its central location is that it’s nestled behind Rorys, the best pub ever, so there’s no need to even cook if you are too busy or just don’t want to after working all day or a long day at the beach
