Thimble Island Views, Sachem’s Head Living


43 Waterside Drive is made for indoor-outdoor living.

When most of us think of sunset over the islands, we think of the tropics. This two-bedroom 1962 beach cottage, located on beautiful Sachem’s Head, in Guilford, has a location and a feel that are quintessentially New England.

With views to the west over Branford’s historic Thimble Islands, the home is set on Joshua Cove, on a beach that’s just right for swimming or launching a kayak or paddleboard. Off the beaten path, the Sachem’s Head neighborhood is ideal for strolling, jogging, and shellfishing.

The seaside light streams in through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the home’s combination living and dining room, which features hardwood floors, a fireplace and built-ins. The master bedroom has a cathedral ceiling, a double-sink bathroom, and a walk-in closet.

This home is being offered for sale by William Pitt Sotheby’s for $869,000. For more information or a showing, contact Barbara Goetsch at 203-927-7146.
