14 Mill Pond Drive

DEADLINE: 9/2 5:00 P.M. Charm resonates upon approach to this darling ranch located on a private road steps from Mill Pond, which has a park, picnic area and pond for fishing and iceskating. Nestled a short distance from the heart and center of Guilford, this home has many wonderful surprises. The exterior features include a pastoral setting of mature gardens, a potting greenhouse, two sheds, a spacious two-car garage with second floor loft, and a large deck with remote-controlled Sunsetter awnings separating the garage from the vinyl-sided home. The interior space encompasses equal delight with hardwood floors, three bedrooms (one with an en suite bath renovated in 2014), an additional full-bath, and an updated kitchen with granite counters and rolling island separating the dining area. Relax by the fireplace in the cozy living room, or entertain in the finished basement with bar and second fireplace--there is plenty of room to spread out! The basement also has a separate laundry room, a cedar storage closet, and ground-level entrance to the backyard, which encompasses more gardens and is bordered by a former cow pond. Appliances include electric range (2021), Bosch dishwasher (2020), Electrolux Front-Load Washer and Dryer (2018 and energy rated), and Refrigerator/Freezer. This special home is powered with a solar plus storage system for energy independence. Oil heat supplements the Mitsubishi ductless heating and cooling systems, providing for low-cost utilities.
