The home has a living room with fireplace and an eat-in kitchen. The kitchen and bathroom look to be original. Washer and dryer are on main level. The basement has a bonus room. Hot water is domestic off the oil furnace. The home sits on a large front yard with a long driveway leading to a detached one car garage. In the backyard there are trees and an outcropping of rocks! In the way back of the property is a little cabin. It is a pretty setting on a main road which is parallel to the Post Rd so it is close to The Milford Mall and restaurants. Location is good for commuters as is it close to I-95 and the Merritt Pkwy. Milford is a charming old town founded in 1639. It has 17 miles beautiful coast line, a pretty Green, Train Station and Fine Arts Council. This home has a lot of stuff in it at this time. Selling "as is where is"!
