About This Home

Your homestead starts here-welcome to 30 Shipway Road, a private waterfront retreat set on 1.49 incredible acres in sought-after Noroton Bay. Designed by renowned architect Chad Nehring, with coastal interiors by Pear Tree Point Design, this 5 bedroom home blends timeless style with modern comfort. Nearly every room takes in sweeping, unobstructed views of the harbor and Long Island Sound, creating a peaceful, picture-perfect setting all year long. The main living spaces flow easily outdoors to a deep water dock, beautiful pool and spa, lush grounds, and gas fire pit - perfect for relaxing or entertaining by the water. The primary suite is a true escape, with vaulted ceilings and its own private balcony overlooking the water-ideal for morning coffee. There's also a two-car attached garage, plus a detached three-car garage with a well-appointed apartment above, great for guests or extended family. A rare opportunity in one of Darien's most desirable waterfront neighborhoods, this home truly captures the best of coastal living.
