About This Home

Idyllic Silvermine cottage living along one of New Canaan's most enchanting river roads. Set on a narrow, storybook stretch of Mill Road where yellow lines disappear, stone walls trace the landscape, and older homes sit close to the Silvermine River, this charming 1933 cottage offers a rare chance to live in one of New Canaan's most atmospheric settings. With direct frontage along the Silvermine River, the property feels less like a typical rental and more like a transport back to an earlier New England rhythm - river views, mature greenery, winding roads, and the quiet character of a historic enclave. Just moments from GrayBarns, the setting offers a unique blend of privacy, beauty, and walkable lifestyle, where dinner, drinks, or lunch by the river can feel like part of everyday life. Inside, the home offers approximately 945 square feet with 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, 1 half bath, a fireplace, off-street parking, and a cottage-style layout that lives simply and comfortably. The property sits on just over one acre and has been previously remodeled while maintaining the charm and scale that make Silvermine so distinct. For those seeking something polished but not generic, private but not isolated, and connected to one of New Canaan's most beautiful natural and architectural pockets, this Silvermine cottage is a rare offering.
