Fantastic home; 3-4 BR, writer's dream, steps to beach, close to Yale

Description

Our home was built in 1889 as a barn with silo, then converted to a house in 1948 and remodeled from 2009-2017. Beautiful, private setting with water views, spectacular master bedroom; two very ample guest bedrooms (each with its own full bath); large playroom/tv/music/art studio with sleep sofas; plus an office/study. Master bedroom has a lofted reading area and above that, another room at top of tower equipped with bookshelves, adjustable standing desk, deluxe writing chair and a 180 degree view of the sound. Private neighborhood beach (w/ kayak storage) two blocks away and also a large public beach a 5 minute walk away - great swimming and fishing. Yale campus is 12-mile, 20-minute drive from the house. (There's also a public bus that stops one block from the house and takes 45 minutes to or from the Yale campus.) The Metro North commuter train station in Milford is 2 miles from house and the ride is under 2 hours to Grand Central Station in New York, or 10 minutes to New Haven. One of a kind home - see pictures and feel free to request more! (Not enough pictures allowed on the site to show all the beaches, bay and island, additional rooms and baths in the house, etc.) We both teach at Yale and would love to have anyone from singles to large families stay in the house during the spring of 2027. If your read our reviews from past folks and want to ask questions about the house or the area, we can put you in touch with them.
