Tucked onto a quiet cul-de-sac in a wonderful section of North Branford close to Lake Gaillard and scenic hiking trails, this 3-bedroom raised ranch is full of character and ready for its next chapter. Built in 1974 and lovingly maintained, the home offers gleaming hardwood floors throughout the main level and a warm, easy flow from room to room. A standout feature is the graceful curved wall that gently separates the living and dining rooms from the kitchen--an unusual architectural touch you won't find in the average raised ranch. The living room centers around a cozy wood-burning fireplace, perfect for taking the chill off a Connecticut evening. Off the dining room, sliders open to a sunporch overlooking a private, beautifully framed backyard and generous side yard. The main level features three bedrooms and a convenient Jack-and-Jill full bath accessible from both the hallway and the primary bedroom. A second full bath in the lower level adds flexibility, and the two-car attached garage offers everyday ease. Thoughtful updates give peace of mind, including a new roof (2024) and a replaced septic tank (2022), along with central air, oil heat, and low-maintenance vinyl siding. Convenient in-kitchen laundry rounds out the practical layout. Ready to enjoy today yet inviting your personal touches, this home is a rare opportunity to build instant equity in a location this desirable. Bring your vision and make it your own where nature, tranquility, and community meet.
