If You're Thinking of Living In/Noroton and Noroton Heights; A Sailor's Heaven Where Darien Began

By Eleanor Charles

• Oct. 10, 1993

WHEN supplying phone numbers, Information does not recognize Noroton, nor does the post office deliver Noroton mail separately from Darien's, as it once did.

Real estate agents regard Noroton and Noroton Heights as neighborhoods in Darien, which they are, and so do newcomers. But the old-timers of English, Irish, Italian, German and Hungarian stock, some living in the same houses their forebears occupied three to five generations ago occupied, cling to Noroton and the Heights as special -- the place where Darien, the smallest town on Fairfield County's Gold Coast, began.

Noroton, which takes its Indian name from the river that empties into Holly Pond and separates Darien from Stamford, was settled in 1690 by four families with land grants from Stamford. As it grew, farmers brought their produce down to Ring's End Landing for shipment to New York. A steady trade in shoemaking also developed. In 1820, Middlesex Parish, as it was called, separated from Stamford and became the Town of Darien. In the 1860's wealthy New Yorkers came up for the summer on the New York and New Haven Railroad that had just begun operations, staying to build sumptuous waterfront homes.

Noroton Heights was created in 1889 by William Dugdale, an Irish immigrant who opened a post office in his grocery. He called it Noroton Heights because a Noroton Post Office already existed, and the name stuck.

Many Heights bungalows were originally built for immigrants who worked on Noroton estates. Modernized over the years "they appeal strongly to first-time buyers," said Alice Mae Orr of Kelly Real Estate. "Prices are somewhat lower than in the rest of town."

A 3-bedroom, 1 1/2-bath house on Renshaw Road in the Heights is listed at $279,000, but larger homes can reach $500,000. A 9-bedroom, 9-bath waterfront mansion and guest house in Noroton is listed at $2.5 million.

Home buyers are attracted to the area by architecture that runs the gamut from saltbox to palatial, quirky to classic. And by the gorgeous shoreline inundated with coves, bays and ice-skating ponds, by the easy commute to Manhattan, and the fact that Darien has, at 13.5 mills, one of the lowest tax rates in Connecticut.

In 1958, Interstate 95 bisected the Heights and paved over its green, gobbling up 114 homes and businesses. But about a quarter mile south of I-95, "if you hadn't been there for decades and drove up the Post Road you would think time had stood still," said Edmund F. Schmidt, author of "Noroton Heights: A Neighborhood for Generations."

"It's one of the few patches of Route 1 that remains residential, with a few local stores," he said.

NOROTON is a sailor's heaven and Darien is a mecca for the horse set. The Ox Ridge Hunt Club was founded in 1912 on land it bought from John McCormack, the Irish tenor who lived in Noroton. Its 37 acres contains two indoor rings, stabling for 85 horses and numerous riding trails. Each June the week-long Ox Ridge Horse Show is held there, with 1,200 hunters, jumpers and their riders competing.

Serious sailors join the Noroton Yacht Club, whose members include three America's Cup skippers: Bill Cox, Bob Bavier, and Buss Mossbacher. Amenities are minimal: a snack counter and two tennis courts. No bar. People bring their own liquor for parties.

In addition, there are some 200 slips and another 200 moorings at the no-frills Darien Boat Club on Pear Tree Point. A 28-foot slip costs $300 for the summer. Naturally, there's a waiting list.

Weed Beach and Pear Tree Point Beach are open to town residents for swimming and small-boat launching. Seasonal stickers cost $15 a car. Tennis and paddle-tennis courts at the beaches cost $4 an hour, and larger boats require a $15 permit.

Other townwide attractions include three private golf clubs, the Darien Ice Rink, clamming (with a $1 license from the health department), and the Darien Historical Society, headquartered in the 1736 Bates-Scofield Homestead.

For the last year Darien's main shopping district on the Post Road has been undergoing a facelift of its sidewalks, parking and the storefronts of numerous antique shops and clothing stores. At the Complete Kitchen and Good Food Store gourmet shops there is a new espresso bar and cooking school, and the Sugar Bowl is where cops, shoppers and business people schmooze over breakfast or lunch.

Dining more formally at Back Street, one of the few restaurants in town, costs about $50 for two, including duck confit or Cajun crawfish, homemade chocolate raspberry roll or cheesecake, and a cocktail or carafe of wine.

Barbara Clarke, a broker with Prudential Wheeler Real Estate of Darien, has noticed "an increasing flow of well-to-do young people from New York." Among her clients are Anne and George Brown from Manhattan. They moved to Noroton in April, and after their baby was born Mrs. Brown returned to work as director of marketing for NBC. Her husband works for Kidder, Peabody.

"There is a sense of community and neighborhood here that we like," Mrs. Brown said. "Stores and two little parks are a short walk away." Houses they saw in Greenwich, she said, "were incredibly expensive and right on top of each other."

"When you're spending $750,000," she said, "you don't want to look out into your neighbor's windows."

Laurie Orem has lived in Noroton for more than a year with her husband and their pre-school child. "We wanted an older Victorian that we would not outgrow," she said. "We are equidistant from the two beaches and we have over half an acre."

She is publicity chairman for the Newcomers' Club, an arm of the Y.W.C.A. with 450 members who organize baby-sitting co-ops, sports and social activities. "Most of our not-so-newcomers have lived here for three years," said Rita Shaughnessy, club director. "That's when we have to kick them out, but they form their own follow-up groups."

The Y also runs a preschool and day-care program for children from 2 months old to third graders. Full-time care for an infant costs $192 a week. The Y.M.C.A. in Noroton conducts a sailing school for children and has an indoor pool. Annual membership for families is $395.

Almost 90 percent of the town's population has a library card. A computerized catalogue, 1,500 videos, 1,600 books on tape, compact discs, domestic and international publications and foreign language collections are available, and on Monday afternoons Masako Sueyoshi tells stories in Japanese for about 20 local Japanese children and a contingent of eavesdroppers.

"We are mixing first-run films that people would like to have seen if we had a movie theater, with the foreign and classic series," said Louise Berry, the director.

The Darien Movie Theater, closed since 1989, is undergoing renovation as a two-screen house, opening late this year after prolonged delays. Live theater at the Club Carousel, formerly the Darien Dinner Theater, began a new season on Sept. 23 with a production of "South Pacific." Dinner and the show cost $40 to $58.

AT the top of the town's agenda is a $22 million school expansion program in which the four elementary schools will be enlarged to accommodate 550 pupils each instead of the current 400. There has been a 35 percent increase in elementary grade enrollments since 1988, requiring the use of 13 portable classrooms.

"Middlesex Middle School will soon need expanding, but Darien High School probably will not," said Eileen Greff, school superintendent. Ninety-three percent of the 800-student high school's graduates this year went on to college.

The 2,878-student system offers a strong gifted and talented program, and the high school drama department regularly exchanges productions with a student theater in Moscow. Last year students performed "West Side Story" in Russia.

Plumfield Day School, for boys and girls from the first through sixth grades, is the town's only private school, with tuition ranging from $7,000 to $12,000.

Three years ago Darien teen-agers got their own community-built hangout, installed in the former Noroton Heights train station. Called the Depot, it is handsomely decorated to resemble an English club. Governed by students and an adult advisory board, it is open afternoons and evenings free of charge, and self-supporting through student-run fund-raisers.

"The dance floor is jammed on Friday and Saturday nights," said Alicia Sillars, the Depot's director.

Regarded for decades as a bedroom community for transferred executives, Darien is acquiring a sense of permanence, exemplified by Mary and Michael Tangney, whose 20-year marriage has been spent abroad in the service of Colgate-Palmolive. A final transfer brought them to Noroton and "the first house we've ever owned," said Mrs. Tangney. "We're here to stay, until we go to the old age home."

And from there perhaps to eternity at the beautiful nonsectarian Spring Grove Cemetery, where an average gravesite is only $1,000.

A column on October 10, "If You're Thinking of Living in Noroton and Noroton Heights," misstated the affiliation of Barbara Clarke, a broker. She is with Country Living Real Estate in Darien.

The State of Real Estate

Whether you’re renting, buying or selling, here’s a look at real estate trends..

American homeowners could see a significant drop  in the cost of selling their homes  after a real estate trade group agreed to a landmark deal  that would eliminate the standard 6% sales commission.

A pricey housing market and higher interest rates have made it harder to afford a house, but so-called closing costs — for items like loan origination fees, discount points, appraisal and credit report fees — are also adding to the challenge .

As the prices for office space in urban centers tumble, cities whose municipal budgets rely on taxes associated with commercial real estate are starting to bear the brunt .

Homeowners are adding hidden doors and rooms to foil burglars, eke out extra storage space and prepare for Armageddon .

Charter schools are popping up in struggling malls  as landlords look for alternative tenants and communities seek to increase educational opportunities.

As housing costs soar, Washington State wants to limit annual rent increases to 7%. The move is part of a wider trend to impose statewide rent caps .

Explosions occurred in Moscow region, several settlements lost power

E xplosions were heard in the town of Lytkarino, Moscow region, tonight, November 23. Several settlements in the Moscow region are without power, according to Baza.

Around 1 a.m., local residents allegedly heard a bright flash from the substation. Afterward, the lights went out in the Lytkarivsky district. A fire reportedly broke out at the site of the explosion.

According to Russian media, power was lost in several settlements in the Moscow region.

It should be noted that Lytkarino is situated 30 kilometers from the Russian capital.

Shots fired in Russia

In 2023, the number of attacks in a number of regions of the Russian Federation by attack drones increased. Also, something often burns and explodes on the territory of Russia. Different regions, including Moscow, are under attack.

At the same time, Ukrainian intelligence has already warned residents of the Russian capital that they should hardly relax, as the number of drone attacks will only increase.

In particular, on the evening of November 10, explosions occurred near the Design Bureau of Mechanical Engineering corporation in the Moscow region, where Kinzhals and Iskandars are manufactured.

One of the largest attacks took place on the night of July 30, when unidentified drones struck the business center of the Russian capital, Moscow City. The drones hit the so-called "government tower," which houses the offices of the Ministry of Economic Development, Ministry of Industry and Trade, and Ministry of Communications.

Brigadier General Sergei Baranov recently said that Ukrainian troops are preparing for a large-scale winter attack on various regions of Russia with the help of kamikaze drones.
