Keywords: House
Silversprings is located on an original homestead site, with over thirty pine trees, aspen groves and 80 year old willow trees, and a commanding view of the Grand Tetons. The original farmhouse has been completely remodeled during the twenty years that the current owners have occupied the house, with a 2000 square foot addition, and a separate 1000 square foot guest house. It also includes a detached two stall garage/greenhouse. The house has three full bathrooms, four bedrooms, family room, solarium, dining room, kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances. River rock fireplace in living room with views of the Grand Tetons from this area, and a large separate TV/gaming room. Large bedrooms in a daylight basement, laundry room/bathroom, converted library/den into bedroom on main floor, and a completely remodeled upstairs with slate bathroom, and cozy master suite. Piano is located in solarium (see photos)
The guest cabin was completely remodeled in 2002; it has two half baths, one with a clawfoot tub (off of master bedroom, and the other with Mexican tile/glass shower. Television, and kitchen, makes this cabin a very private retreat. It has a private hot tub off of master suite (in addition to hot tub off front of the house)
Located two and one quarter miles off of the main road, Silversprings is at the end of a very quiet road, with just four other homes located in the neighborhood, all very private from one another (but close enough to call yourself a neighborhood). A great place for kids, sledding hill off the back yard.

Why the Owner Chose Driggs
Just lucky to have had the opportunity to raise my family in this beautiful and friendly community.
The Unique Benefits at this House
I can't even begin to tell you what it is like to wake up on a sunny March morning, and to go out your back door and put on your cross-country skis, gather up your dog, and go for miles across the neighbors fields, up into the Teton foothills. Or to ride your mountain bike down a country road to access a forest service backroad and ride all the way to the base of Grand Targhee. If there is any reason that I have stayed fit and young at heart, it is due to the nature of having access to outside exercise all of my adult life. (putting snow suits on my three children, and having a sledding hill out the back door hasn't hurt a bit either!)
Owner's Map of Driggs
Mike and Suzanne are currently living in the house, and plan to occupy the guest house during the summer rental season. Mike is an avid fisherman, and has run a very successful fly-fishing business in Western Maryland for the past five years. He met Suzanne while he was out west looking for a place from which to base his western fly fishing business, and when he met Suzanne, she was more than happy to show him Silversprings. And, as they say, the rest is history!
