Charming home by Gulf Beach

Four-bedroom Milford home with elegant interior details

Classic detail, charming character and an open floorplan combine to offer an exceptional lifestyle where comfortable living meets an ideal location. This stunning colonial is set on a quiet corner parcel tucked off Gulf Street and convenient to Gulf Beach, Milford Harbor, train station, the Milford Green and all the surrounding shops and restaurants.

“This home abounds with details that were standard in 1910 when the home was built, with features that are seldom found in today’s new construction homes, especially at this price point,” says listing agent Betsy Anderson.

A circular driveway accents the front approach to this stately fourbedroom residence. Charm and character is evident from the moment one steps inside, where arched doorways, hardwood floors, crown moldings, French doors and handsome raised wall panels extend from the foyer and expand throughout.

“Spacious rooms and a flexible floor plan work well for today’s lifestyle and allows this home to live as large or cozy as you’d like,” Anderson adds. There are even two laundry locations on the upper and lower level for added convenience.

The inviting living room offers gracious entertaining space including and double-sided fireplace shared with a delightful sunroom that opens to the expansive patio, which affords a wonderful space for outdoor entertaining.

The kitchen is finely appointed with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a sunny breakfast area and attractive cabinetry including a former back staircase that has been repurposed into a cabinet. The kitchen flows into the family room with vaulted ceiling and tall spans of windows that let in an abundance of light.

French doors from the family room open to the dining room where dentil moldings and built-in corner cabinets create an elegant atmosphere.

Hardwood floors continue throughout the upper level. Here, the master bedroom suite enjoys a nicely finished bath with a luxurious soaking tub, walk-in tiled shower and dual vanities. Three additional bedrooms are generously proportioned. One of the bedrooms has a bonus room which is ideal for toys, studying, workspace or exercise. The hall bathroom has also been updated and retains the character of the era, accented with a pedestal sink and wall sconces.

The third floor walk-up attic is perfect for storage.

Set on over .40 acres, this property is one of the larger ones in the immediate area offering plenty of room for owners to create whatever they desire for outdoor living space.

“The current owners love living here and found the home ideal for entertaining as well as daily life,” Anderson commented. “There is plenty of wall space to enjoy one’s art collection, abundant storage, charm, character and quality construction! Whether celebrating holidays or just enjoying a cup of coffee in the sunroom each morning, this house met all their needs.”

The owners also found it easy to walk to the train station and hop on Metro North to enjoy frequent trips into New York City.
