Darien Connecticut

Just 50 minutes from the hub of Manhattan, Darien is an attractive blend of comfortable seaside living and easy travel to the corporate world - making it a popular choice for executives and professionals and their families. Settled in 1645 and formally incorporated in 1820, the seclusion and beauty of Darien were well-kept secrets until 1920 when affluent artists and writers discovered the natural splendor of this coastal site. Since then, Darien has grown into a prosperous community, rich with history and enjoyment, and dedicated to the promotion of education, cultural/social development, and conservation of natural resources.

An accelerated curriculum and specialized education is provided for the gifted and disabled.
The town's exceptional coastline and inland beauty provide many ideal spots for varied styles and sizes of homes. The Noroton and Tokeneke areas display magnificent waterfront properties. Country estates, grand Victorian houses and homes of contemporary design are found throughout Darien. Enchanting beach cottages dot the coast.

A center of constant actvity is the Darien Library which boasts 133,000 volumes and the highest per capita circulation in Connecticut.

Leisure and sporting activities abound in Darien. The town's pristine beaches provide ample swimming, water-skiing, windsurfing and sun-bathing. Boating and fishing enthusiasts are well served by public and private marinas and clubs. Equestrian sports are particularly popular in town, and the Ox Ridge Hunt Club sponsors an annual qualifying show for the National Horse Show.
