About This Home

As of October 2018

OWNERS SAY SELL! JUST REDUCED!! INVESTORS TAKE NOICE!! Great rental potential!! No matter what season it is, the breathtaking views from this spacious, cozy cottage on 1.4 acres in the quaint town of Guilford will amaze all who enter! Airy, bright, and full of sunshine this house welcomes you “home” the minute you walk through the windowed front door. Living room with comfy reading corner, 2 large bedrooms, oversized bath and center hall dining area makes entertaining easy. Owners have updated home over the past 2 years as evidenced by the light open concept kitchen with new appliances and oversized sliders affording the most fabulous sunset viewing. Rise early in the morning, grab a cup of coffee, sit on the wrap around trek decking and watch the ospreys take flight or sailboats sail in and out of Sachems Head. The delightful breezes that flow in from Long Island Sound and shade from mature trees help to keep the home cool in summer months. Kayak through the marsh channels out to LIS all the while surrounding yourself with nature at it's best. In the past year owners have installed new well, furnace, water purification system, and hard wood floors.. The large yard is perfect for a new pool or tranquil space to gather with friends. Minutes from the historic Guilford Green this oasis is 20 minutes east of New Haven and easily accessible by I-95 or train. A perfect alternative to condo living, downsizing or that perfect summer retreat! Central Air being installed.
