Description

FIRST TIME OFFERED IN 49 YEARS! Wonderful opportunity to own this historic, Queen Anne style home in the heart of the popular village of Short Beach. It features a wrap around porch and a third floor walk-up tower (aka, a Widow's Watch). The large deck is ideal for outdoor entertaining, and there is plenty of room for a pool. Located just steps from the water, and multiple beaches (but not in a flood zone!). It is recognized by the town as a two-family, but has been also been utilized as a single family over the years. The main level boasts an open floor plan with a stunning 8 ft. wide, floor to ceiling stone fireplace. History buffs will enjoy hearing that when it was built in the early 1900's, it was reported to be comprised of 46 stones, one from each state of the union at that time. Short Beach Village also offers (all within close proximity), beautiful parks, a delightful restaurant, and a post office. Also nearby is the Yale Corinthian Yacht Club, where sailing lessons are available. A short walk will take you to the oldest continually operating trolley line, that has runs from Short Beach to the East Haven Trolly Museum. The house has steam heat radiators, a newly added boiler, newer roofs and hot water heater. The Branford train station enables easy connections to Grand Central and Boston. The town green offers a host of restaurants and quaint shops. Branford is a boaters paradise with many marinas and a state boat launch. Opportunity is knocking.
