This contemporary "Gem" is a must see! The current owners have transformed the home with a spectacular, thoughtful renovation. Walls moved and ceilings raised, creating a dramatic open floor plan with height, light and function. The entry foyer where vaulted ceilings begin, welcomes you to the Living room enjoying the same soaring paneled ceiling, fireplace & doors to the great outdoors! To the left side of foyer, the 'Main Event', the Great Room encompassing the stunning chef's kitchen, dining area & welcoming family room w/ doors to deck and fireplace that enhances all 3 living spaces. One floor convenience with spacious Primary Suite with designer bath, closets galore, door to deck and a home office hideaway. Another large ensuite bedroom with updated bath complete the right side of the home. Through the Great Room, a cozy sitting room ushers you to 2 more bedrooms with hall bath. On the lower level; a large sunny playroom, exercise studio and lots of LL storage. The not so obvious recent improvements include; new propane mechanicals, new AC, all new thermopane windows and doors, repainted interior and exterior, spray foam insulation, new front entry doors, garage doors and front facing roof. A large wood deck, partially covered overlooks the spacious, level back yard. An over-sized two car garage and full house generator complete the package. This 2 acre hilltop setting is close to town, transportation and New Canaan's fine schools, in the heart of historic Silvermine.
