Description

Step into history with this unparalleled opportunity to own a piece of Guilford's rich heritage. Nestled in the historic Nut Plains section, this remarkable property holds a federal style home built in 1810 by Col. George Foote. While officially addressed as 829 Goose Lane, the front facade elegantly faces Foote's Bridge Road, where remnants of a seventeenth-century thoroughfare still exist. Situated on over 5 acres along the serene East River, opposite the East River Preserve, this estate offers a harmonious blend of tranquility and proximity to town. While this home may not boast the modern updates of contemporary residences, its unaltered state serves as a canvas for those seeking to preserve and restore historical authenticity. With two primary suites, five fireplaces, and a butler's pantry, the residence captures the essence of a time when craftsmanship and functionality were paramount. Step into the sunlit haven of the bright sunroom, a tranquil space overlooking the yard's oasis. The gunite pool and spacious patio offer a glimpse into a bygone era when outdoor spaces were designed for simple pleasures and gatherings. The property's incredible barns, including the iconic "English Barn," stand as silent witnesses to the agricultural history that shaped this land. For those with an appreciation for history and a vision for restoration, this property provides a rare opportunity to create a home that stands as a testament to Guilford's unique and timeless legacy.

  • Melissa B.
    "Excellent schools, excellent teachers, but the culture here puts a lot of pressure on kids to achieve academically and do lots of extracurriculars, which can lead to anxiety & depression. The school district is actively focusing on improving the mental health of the students, though, so hopefully that problem will dissipate. Not many real neighborhoods here, so in most areas kids can’t just go outside and find friends to play with — you have to organize play dates. A lot of conformity amongst both adults and kids. "

    "Friendly neighbors, quiet roads for walking or biking. Timberlands neighborhood is a beautiful safe and friendly area, convenient to everything, town, beaches, Rt. 80 is the best main way to Yale/New Haven with no traffic (beats I-95)! Timberlands has very nice river and lakes."
