33 Island View Avenue Branford, CT 06405

Seaside living at its best. This meticulously maintained house retains the original 1875 floorplan, and many architectural details from that time -- while it is fully heated and air conditioned -- with numerous updates. The original wraparound porches have been enclosed, adding delightful rooms conducive to reading, conversation -- or just looking at the water, light and weather. With 5-6 bedrooms there is plenty of space for family and guests. The property is professionally landscaped and maintained, including a shed and a landscaped parking area. The flowerbed is a gem. With a remarkable view both of the Sound and the curving shore -- this property retains the sense of "seaside retreat" which has been a signal characteristic of the Pine Orchard community since its early days as the last stop on the northbound trolley line. It must be seen.
