City - Darien

Darien is a coastal city in Fairfield County, near the border of Connecticut and New York. Its close proximity to Manhattan (plus local beaches!) makes Darien a great place to call home for those looking for big-city amenities and nightlife in a suburban locale.

The city is considered a “bedroom community” due to its lack of office spaces – meaning, most residents live in Darien but work outside of it like in nearby Stamford or New York City. Two Metro-North subway stations reside in Darien and provide easy travel to Grand Central Terminal or the remaining stops along New Haven Line. If you’re looking for fun, Darien is home to eleven parks, numerous country- and yacht clubs, plus public beaches on the Long Island Sound.

Like other large cities, Darien is divided into smaller subsections. Numerous restaurants surround the Darien Station, including the Melting Pot, Green & Tonic, Bodega Taco Bar, and Meatball & Co. bistro. Love to shop? Small, upscale boutiques thrive here.

Overall, it's been a good experience

This property is owned and managed by Garden Homes Management. I have lived here for just over 4 years now and for the most part it has been a good experience. My biggest frustration was when the elevator was broken for 8 months in 2013. That might not sound like a big deal in a 2 story building but it's a completely different story when you and your spouse live on the second floor and one of you becomes handicapped.... Anyway, the elevator has since been fixed and other than that it has been a good experience. We plan to stay for a while. I've never had a problem finding a parking spot in the lot and non-elevator service requests are always addressed and resolved within 1-2 days. Laundry is on the bottom floor and there are certainly enough machines (I've never had to wait). There is also a small gym with cardio equipment and weights if you like to work out. The apartments are small but it's a great starter place for 1 or 2 people and pets are allowed too! Rent might seem a little high but when you realize that you are getting an apartment in a safe neighborhood in Darien with Trader Joe's across the street and compare it with other apartments in the Norwalk/Stamford/Darien area, it's actually quite a deal!
