About this property

A TREETOPS Retreat! Upscale, Artsy 5 bedroom that sleeps 9-11, With POOL

TREETOPS is a 4850 square ft 5 bedroom Mid century Modern perched on an outcropping of granite cliffs, surrounded by 2 acres of beautiful forest. *Property not suitable for children under 8 years old. If you have younger children, however, we can discuss to see if our property is a good fit* Perfect for family reunions, work retreats, "rest and relax" retreats, and even small weddings! Spa services right in town, 5 minutes away. Stroll along the loop trail in our backyard woods, hike in acres of beautiful woods in "Westwoods" next door, visit the town beach, have s'mores by the natural stone fire pit, or relax and get some sun by the marine-blue, stone-decked pool area with flower garden! Birdwatching, breakfast, yoga, and evening cocktails are best on the spacious wrap-around deck. We have an incredible library, fireplaces, and even a baby grand piano.

The space
The inside of Treetops is just as spectacular, where classic and modern styles blend. Antiques are plentiful but so too are modern paintings, sculptures, and other unique art. Our love of indigenous cultures will be obvious, and we don't shy away from colors as well! Beautiful, lush plants give the house a welcoming, homey feel.

Treetops has vaulted ceilings, and an open and spacious floor plan. There is a great kitchen with new appliances, a two-person breakfast nook, and an oversized dining area and living room overlooking the oversized deck mentioned above. Perfect for social gatherings of all kinds! Plentiful windows and slider doors flood the house in sunlight and fresh breezes.

The large living room has a top-of-the-line stereo system, CDs, large Smart TV, impressive fieldstone fireplace, and extensive library. Grab a book and recline on the soft velvet sofa while listening to some classical music! From there, walk into the master bedroom with more windows and wooded views, TV with DVD player and huge selection of movies, walk-out deck, and walk-in closet. The tiled bathroom has two sinks, a jetted tub for easing sore muscles, and a great shower/showerhead, with some basic amenities available for your stay. Then walk into the "Blue" room, a bedroom with 2 twin beds overlooking the driveway with bureau, bedside table, and bookshelves. Guests in this room will share the master bathroom for bathing but can also use the half bathroom near the front entrance. A hallway then leads to the newly appointed den, with new TV, sofas, and a second beautiful fieldstone fireplace. There are games and coloring books available in the cabinet.

Across from the den and off the main entrance is the "Yellow" room. It too is newly renovated and has a Full bed, large built-in desk overlooking the pool, views galore, and a cozy reading nook that can also double as a second place to sleep.

Upstairs are two bedrooms, "The Queen", with a queen-size bed, and "The Twins" with -- you guessed it -- 2 twin beds. Both rooms have bureaus, bedside tables, one or two oversized windows, sound machines, fans, and their own full bathroom. You are really in the treetops up here! Enjoy your stay.

Other things to note
We are near some railroad tracks and a few times a day, mostly morning and evening, trains go by. You will definitely hear them if you are awake, but we have never been bothered by them when sleeping.

If we can be of help during your stay, please contact us. Please reach out with any questions! Thanks for choosing Treetops.

Stunning, unique, amazing
By far the most unique architecture that we have ever stayed in. Every room is an adventure from its shape to the stunning artifacts from around the world. A gorgeous setting that was perfect for relaxing. Everything is first class-five star. So memorable that we are coming back next year.

A curated escape
This house is INCREDIBLE. The pictures do not do it justice. It's like staying in a perfectly curated museum. It's extremely comfortable and lovingly decorated. The space is so unique and inspiring. The decks are lovely for lounging. The pool is amazing. Six adults very comfortably shared the home and we had a great time! There's lots of hiking right by the property and the birdwatching is incredible at the house. Also Guilford is a very quaint and charming town with plenty of diversions and dining. It's the perfect place to unwind.

A Jewel.
Don’t hesitate in staying here. You’ll have no regrets. It’s an absolutely beautiful & welcoming home in a breathtaking private setting. My family and I and especially our grandson enjoyed every minute here. Was a pleasure working with Dan. We hope to come back again!

Awesome spot! Truly a treehouse
First visit to Connecticut. Stayed for 4 nights with my adult children and my sisters family for family wedding. Loved everything about the house. Very eclectic with lots of outdoor space next to miles of trails and close to quaint town.
