634 Silvermine Rd, New Canaan, CT 06840

"Stand on the corner of Silvermine and Valley Roads and pretend, as you look at the northwest corner that the year is 1796! There stands a dignified square white house, obviously brand new, the product of a man's desire to have a suitable homestead for himself and his family." (Jane R. Barry, Author ) And so the history of the Crowfoot-Ireland House begins. Boasting a spot in the historic Silvermine District, this home has many of the original features; a "keeping room", formal living room, formal dining room, grand front staircase and rear staircase off the kitchen. Original hardwood floors are featured throughout the majority of the rooms. 4 Bedrooms, 4 Full Baths, 4 fireplaces, plus an enclosed porch offering a wonderful spot to enjoy the private backyard overlooking magnificent stone walls and mature plantings. A few of the "modern" touches include an addition off the kitchen and a detached 3 car garage with a potting shed with electricity and water! If you have a love of history and are up to the challenge of bringing this home back to its original glory then this is the house for you!
