Branford CT Waterfront+PrivateBeach Beachfront Cottage Serene Private Beach, Kayaks

Exclusively offered for the first time for summer 2023, this family retreat is now offered as a professionally managed Airbnb. The cozy 2 BR 1 BA cottage is the best of its kind in Branford, and also its best-kept secret! It has a full kitchen, gas range and cooktop, central A/C, hardwood floors and heritage trim throughout, giving it a rustic feeling. The bedrooms (one double, and two twin beds) both flank the updated bathroom. The home opens up into a quaint living room and dining area, with a new queen sleeper sofa looking out to a sunny deck, private beach and the Branford River. Adjoining the deck is a screened in porch with many paneled windows ideal for playing cards, playing games, or just enjoying a quiet evening by the river.
