What if your favorite destination was your own backyard? Set on one acre of beautifully landscaped acres in Town & Country, this extensively renovated residence offers 5 bedrooms, 4 full and 1 half baths, over 5,800 square feet of finished living space, and an extraordinary collection of indoor and outdoor amenities. A classic brick exterior introduces sophisticated interiors with expansive windows, wide-plank hardwood floors, custom millwork, and thoughtfully designed gathering spaces. The two-story foyer opens to a private study with custom built-ins, an elegant dining room, and a spacious great room anchored by a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace. The designer kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and a 10-foot center island, opening to an inviting family room with a dedicated wine bar. Upstairs, the vaulted primary suite offers generous proportions and a beautifully appointed bath with an expanded shower. Four additional bedrooms and two full baths complete the second level. The finished lower level provides exceptional recreational space with a game room, expansive gathering area, distinctive brick and timber detailing, and a full bath. The outdoor experience is equally impressive. An expansive covered dining terrace with a built-in pizza oven and gas grill overlooks the spectacular in-ground pool, generous sun terraces, and manicured grounds. A separate poolside pavilion features a dramatic stone fireplace, television, and additional lounge space, while a game court and expansive, level lawn accommodate recreation on an entirely different scale. Complete with a three-car garage and an exceptional degree of privacy, 12525 Darien Drive offers a rare combination of substantial living space, beautifully executed improvements, and resort-caliber amenities. This is an extraordinary opportunity to enjoy more than an acre of usable grounds and a private recreational retreat in the heart of Town & Country.
