''A new house wrapped around an old house'' was the vision suggested by architect Rob Sanders as he worked with the owners for the most recent major renovation. Blending new and historical features seamlessly, the original 1846 building is now a jewel box perched overlooking the Silvermine River. A small, contemporary artist's studio and three-hole putting green are included on the property. The site and adjacent Land Trust property provides intimate views; river wildlife and the change of seasons can be enjoyed from every room. The result is a comfortable, lovely oasis in the middle of prestigious Silvermine -- minutes from two train stations and the Merritt/I95 connector, and a few minutes walk to the GrayBarns Inn and Tavern, the Silvermine Guild Art Center, and Silvermine Market
