128 Talcott RoadGuilford, CT 06437Price: $575,000

Privacy meets convenience at 128 Talcott Road, a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath colonial set on a wooded 1.05-acre lot in the heart of Guilford. A long driveway curves past granite outcroppings and towering trees, delivering the kind of seclusion that's hard to find so close to town. Inside, vaulted ceilings and gleaming hardwood floors set an airy, welcoming tone. The living room's tiled fireplace and wall of sliding glass doors draw the eye and the light straight out to an expansive deck, where the forest feels like your own private backdrop. A second fireplace in the lower level family room adds warmth for cooler months. The kitchen is bright and functional, with newer stainless steel appliances, a stone backsplash, and a picture window over the sink. Two bedrooms offer quiet comfort upstairs - the second featuring a custom-built, floor-to-ceiling bookcase that follows the roofline, offering thoughtfully designed storage and display space that makes the most of every angle, ideal whether you use the room as a bedroom or a home office. The partially finished lower level adds a third bedroom along with options for a home office, gym, or media room. A one-car garage and true wooded privacy round out this special property, all within minutes of Guilford Lakes School, Guilford High School, the Guilford Green, shoreline beaches, and I-95. Come see why 128 Talcott is the retreat you didn't know you needed.
