About this home

Welcome to this lifetime home and gorgeous property, set back from the road with wonderful privacy, sundrenched and tranquil with 458 feet of waterfront along the Silvermine River. On the market for the first time in almost 50 years, this is a great opportunity to make this home your own. Bathed in natural light, the rooms are generously sized and there is gracious flow for entertaining. Built with quality, the house has great bones. The primary bedroom has a good sized walk-in closet. Bedroom #2 has a very spacious walk-in closet in addition to a regular closet. Note the expansive family room space with kitchen overlooking the river. The wrap-around deck and brick patio are perfect for outdoor enjoyment. The sunroom off the livingroom sparkles with three walls of glass, opening to the patio and expansive yard. Just over 1100 SF in the walkout basement is great space that could be put to many uses. The sitting room off the kitchen can be an office, or serve as a fifth bedroom with full bath. In addition, the house has an efficient full-house generator. LOCATION ! Do not overlook the charming Silvermine location, just down the road from Gray Barns Inn & Tavern and the Silvermine Arts Guild and market. Easy drive to downtown New Canaan, minutes to major highways and trains.
