Plenty of older homes in Darien and Greenwich sit closer to the street or the property line than today’s rules allow. As long as the structure stays, it keeps that footprint. Tear it down and the new house has to follow the current setbacks and coverage, which can mean a smaller house, or a house that sits somewhere you did not want it.
Near the water in Old Greenwich, a renovation that costs more than half the value of the structure means bringing the whole house up to current flood code. For most houses that means raising it.
Teardown or renovate
In these towns a new house is worth a lot more than a fully renovated one, so if the money is there, a teardown is usually worth it. But the math only works if you can fund it. Read Teardown or renovate? How we decide in Darien and Greenwich.
What our clients say
From our Google listing, word for word.
We have had the pleasure of working with Jeff Scalise on two new homes over the past six years, and I truly cannot say enough good things about him, his team, and his subcontractors. Having built twice with Jeff, I wouldn’t hesitate to work with him again.

Building a home can be stressful, but Jeff makes the entire process feel easy. He is incredibly organized, communicates well, and is always honest and transparent. He works hard to keep everything on budget, even when construction costs are rising, while helping us understand where it makes sense to invest in upgrades that add value.
What we appreciate most is that Jeff genuinely cares about the quality of his work. He never cuts corners and consistently uses the best materials, from spray foam insulation to high-quality windows and doors. You can trust that things are being done right.
Finding a builder you can trust is invaluable, and Jeff has earned that trust from us time and time again. We couldn’t recommend him more highly!
We have known Jeff for over 20 years and he has undertaken many projects for us over that time including a whole house renovation at our current home in Stamford. Projects are always completed in a timely manner and costs controlled. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jeff and his crew for any job big or small.
