Kayak, canoe or boat to Long Island Sound from your own BOAT DOCK providing a place to tie up your personal watercraft. Pull a few Adirondack chairs out to the dock and take in the spectacular views of the "River". This home is beautifully sited on Guilford's East River. Rich in history, what was originally built as a barn on Podunk Road in the North Guilford section of town in 1781, was transformed into a 7+ room residence bursting with architectural oddities. The barn was moved to East River Road in the 1930's. Over the years the barn was improved and in 1979 was dramatically rebuilt and transformed into a winterized year-round residence by local homebuilder, James E. Goodridge. In 1981 the parents of the current owner did a major renovation of the interior. Almost 40 years later this diamond in the rough is waiting for the next owner to modernize and update to their personal liking. To the left of the home is an impressive two car detached garage with additional space on its second level, including two rooms and a 1/2 bath for use as an office or studio. This bonus space can easily be transformed into an apartment. Prime area with close proximity to Route 1 and I-95. Extra bonuses - City Water and Natural Gas.
