55-69 Sawmill Road, Branford, (Stony Creek), CT, 06405

For the first time in nearly two decades, a Branford treasure returns to the market-welcome to 55-69 Sawmill Road, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Connecticut's rich heritage. Originally a 19th-century sawmill, this stone estate was transformed into a residence in the 1930s, thoughtfully incorporating the original mill structure, and is nestled beside a breathtaking waterfall, framed by over two acres of pristine tidal creekfront and lush woodlands. Minutes from the historic waterfront village of Stony Creek, this timeless property blends old-world charm with everyday living. The 3000+ square foot main home, built in 1939, offers 3-4 bedrooms, three full baths, and four original fireplaces. The main level features an eat-in kitchen, a sprawling great room with a fireplace, a dining area with stunning nature and water views, a den with a fireplace, three bedrooms, two baths, and a four-season porch leading to a patio. On the ground floor, discover a full bath, wine storage, a large walk-in closet, and two flexible rooms with fireplaces and water views-one ideal as an additional bedroom. Stone patios, terraces by the waterfall, garden paths, and a private pier offer a front-row seat to the natural splendor. New central A/C in 2025. Across the lane, a second parcel of land includes a two-car garage and a charming two-room building, perfect as a guest cottage, artist studio, or office. 55-69 Sawmill Road offers a unique opportunity to own a Shoreline treasure! In addition to the historic buildings and private waterfall, this estate offers a rare blend of coastal living, woodland beauty, and year-round water views. The stone facade of the main residence is framed by four seasons of ever-changing landscape, creating a setting that feels both dramatic and livable. Directly across from the waterfall lies the peaceful supply pond, adorned with water lilies and ideal for a quiet canoe ride or morning reflection. The natural movement and sound of water lend the property a distinctive sense of serenity and charm. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to Branford Land Trust properties and nearby hiking trails, offering immediate access to preserved woodlands and nature exploration. Despite its privacy, the location is minutes from Stony Creek Village, the Thimble Islands, and Guilford's iconic historic green-placing marinas, dining, boutiques, and shoreline attractions within easy reach. This one-of-a-kind lot seamlessly combines history, water, and landscape, offering an exceptionally rare opportunity to own a property that is both secluded and deeply connected to the best of the Connecticut shoreline.
