About this home

NOTE FROM A CHILD RAISED IN THIS HOME - "Growing up here, with it's beautiful property & access to diverse wildlife has been very meaningful to me. It has given me such an appreciation & love of the beautiful birds & animals that share our property, shaped who I am & instilled a love of Nature I will always be grateful for!" Nestled in the desirable Silvermine area of Wilton, along a picturesque river, this Nature Lover's Paradise/Artist's Retreat is a very special place to call home. There are so many beautiful spaces to relax & find joy in this charming center hall colonial. The great room with vaulted & beamed ceilings is so bright & airy, as a skylight brings in the sun. Doors on each side of the room provide access to two decks & allow for a wonderful cross breeze. There are lovely formal spaces, too. A generously sized living room, a dining room with access to the larger deck, make entertaining easy. The eat-in kitchen with granite counters & stainless-steel appliances is at the heart of the home. There is also a cozy family room with beamed ceilings & wide, peg board flooring with a wood-burning fireplace. For the artist in the family, there is a tremendous studio with vaulted ceilings. No artist? Then the options are endless... playroom, workout space, large home office, etc. There is a smaller office, half bath & laundry, too. A primary bedroom suite & 3 more bedrooms with 1/2 bath are upstairs. Central A/C. 2-car garage. Come & enjoy this unique & special property!
