Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2000
I grew up in Branford, CT and met my wife, who is from CA, here as well. We both love Branford and it's quaint New England charm. Combined with the seaside beauty this town has to offer we jumped at the chance to buy this property. It was the "ugly" house on the street when we acquired it in 2000. A very dated and structurally different ranch, my wife, who should have become an architect came up with a great design. By 2003 we transformed this ugly duckling into one of the most talked about homes on the street. Work has taken us to CA but we look forward to our trips back to CT to visit with family and friend and to stay in our lovely home on the east coast. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.
Why the Owner Chose Branford
Branford is a wonderful New England town that has managed to attract some great restaurants, quality healthcare facilities and is convenient to almost everything while maintaining a quaint feel. Being right on the water is wonderful experience and each community within Branford has a feel of its own to appeal to everyone.
The Unique Benefits of this House
I enjoy looking out any window in the house and feeling like I am in a park. Very rarely does a car pass by but yet we are only a 2 minute drive to the market and a 5 minute stroll to the beach. Our sunroom overlooks our huge back yard where I can birdwatch or enjoy a warm fire while the snow falls.
