About the host
Hosted by Brandy
Greetings! My husband Dom and I had our first date in Milford. We fell in love with the town so much, we decided to move here 10 years later! This town is magical to us so we want to extend the charm and hospitality to you!
Why they chose this property
This beautiful home was built in 1866 and has been beautifully restored by its previous owners. Located just one block from Main Street, you will be within a few minutes walk to the very best Milford has to offer. We have equipped the home with everything (and more) you and your family will need to feel right at home. Inside, there are several spaces to spread out. The back yard is beautiful, expansive and loaded with activities.
What makes this property unique
The fixtures and furnishings within the home are new and thoughtfully chosen for the space, while several original details have been maintained to preserve the original beauty and character of the home. All mattresses are high end and new. The outdoor fire pit, grill and bocce court allow for hours of outdoor fun!
