83 Jacobs LaneGuilford, CT 06437Price: $1,000,000

Nestled high on a quiet, highly private 2-acre hilltop lot, 83 Jacobs Lane offers a rare blend of peaceful seclusion, natural beauty, and shoreline convenience. Bordered on the west by a large stream-fed pond and on the east by dramatic granite cliffs, the home enjoys spectacular water and woodland views from nearly every angle. Watch blue herons, egrets, turtles, and other wildlife from the wraparound deck, and listen to bullfrogs on summer evenings. Large windows throughout fill the home with natural light. Thoughtfully updated and serviced by city water, the flexible floor plan includes a beautiful 2nd-floor primary suite with walk-in closets, built-in window seat overlooking the pond, private balcony, and spa bath with soaking tub. A second primary bedroom suite on the main level offers excellent versatility for guests, multigenerational living, or single-level convenience. Upstairs, a large vaulted room with windows on three sides and its own exterior entrance is ideal for a home office, studio, or creative retreat. Despite its deep sense of privacy, this exceptional property is just 0.7 miles from the historic Guilford Green's shops, restaurants, and cafes, 2 miles to the town beach, 1.2 miles to the train station, and 0.7 miles to West Woods trails. A peaceful natural sanctuary minutes from the best of Guilford.
