22 Wildrose Ave, Guilford, CT 06437

Uniquely designed custom home on 2.6 acres creates a retreat that is close to all conveniences. Private yet within a mile to the center of Guilford. Stepping into this home is transformative as it skillfully links elements of simplicity and order with strong Japanese influences. The central feature of the home is the living room and oversized wood burning fireplace with raised hearth enhanced by the octagonal beamed ceiling. An eastward facing kitchen captures the morning sun. A sunroom area with fieldstone walls and stone floor speaks to the natural elements that create a home of peace and creativity. Passive solar along with partially earth bermed exterior walls enhances the energy efficiency of this home. The owner explains that it is as self sufficient as practical. A mature vegetable garden benefits from soil building and enhancement over the past 26 years. The 800 SF frame shed with dirt floor is currently used as a winter greenhouse. Seller has kindly installed new roof and new boiler as of 2019. A uniquely special property in the shoreline town of Guilford just 1.5 mile from the train station and halfway between New York and Boston.
