Introducing The Sun House with a blend of history and modernity. Enveloped in the charm of 1845 architecture, this Silvermine estate is a treasure trove for the discerning homeowner. Spanning over 4,000 square feet, the fully updated main house boasts four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms. Step into the chef's kitchen, a culinary haven for the home gourmet, where modern amenities meet timeless design. The living experience extends beyond the main dwelling, featuring a converted barn (1440 Sf) and a gardener's cottage (405 SF). These versatile spaces are ideal for family gatherings, a serene home office, or an inspiring retreat for artists and writers alike. The property spans 1.74 acres of private land and features a Smithsonian-documented landscape. Revel in the private outdoor space, where a 20x40 ft pool invites leisurely swims, and a charming gazebo promises tranquil afternoons. The estate is further adorned with a greenhouse, nurturing your botanical pursuits. There's a 3-car garage. This historic gem is within easy walking distance to the Silvermine Art Center, the Tavern and Mercantile at Grey Barns. This is truly a vibrant oasis for the next steward.
