- 32 days
Welcome to 2 James Street, a charming 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath ranch on a rare 0.59-acre multi-elevation lot with views of the Silvermine River. Step through the Dutch door into an open, sunlit living and dining room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, picture window, and two oversized skylights that flood the space with natural light. The sunny kitchen is the heart of the home, while the main bath offers a tub-shower combo and granite-topped vanity. A third skylight brightens one of the bedrooms, and updated windows throughout enhance the home's abundant natural light. The semi-finished basement includes laundry and an accessible pull-down attic for storage. Recent upgrades include a new roof (Fall 2023), new oil tank (April 2026), new electric water heater (May 2026), fresh paint, and new light fixtures. Outside, a two-level deck connects the main house to a separate studio/workshop outbuilding with electric service. Imagine hosting events and parties with your own party room! The private raised yard offers river views, mature trees, swings, a trellis, and a matching fence--it's a homeowner's playground. A two-car attached garage completes the property. Located on tree-lined James Street with views of Davis Pond and the Silvermine River, you're minutes from Gray Barns, Silvermine and Broad River shopping, restaurants, and New Canaan. The heart of Silvermine awaits!
