Photos and Description of the Branford vacation house rental
6 Bedrooms, 5 Bathrooms, Sleeps 11

UPDATE: Beginning September 1 2010 property will be available for long term rentals. Please inquire for long term details. Thanks.

A Branford, CT Waterfront Community Custom built five bedroom five bathroom contemporary home with New England accents located in a golf and beach community on the most sought after street in town. Completely redone in 2001 with the finest materials and upgrades. Kitchen is a gourmet chef's dream with professional all stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops with two sinks and cherry cabinets.

Great floor plan for every day living and entertaining. Perfect for accommodating guests and live-in help. Two large decks overlooking the estate provide views of the rolling green lawn and professionally landscaped gardens. Only a short walk to a private beach and country club. Very accessible to New York City, New Haven, CT -Yale University, Hartford, CT, Providence, RI and Boston, MA. Very easy train access to NYC, Providence and Boston

Beach Access Update:

The Hurricane that struck the CT area the summer of 2011 has eroded the beach access path at the end of Yowago Avenue. The path is currently under reconstruction should be completed by May 2013. All other access points to Pine Orchard beach are open and also within walking distance. Plenty of parking also should you decide to drive

We also recommend that our clients take advantage of the Stoney Creek beach in Branford which is a 10 minute drive away from the property. We highly recommend a visit to this area which is home to the Thimble Islands.

About Anthony Malaro

I grew up in Branford, CT and met my wife, who is from CA, here as well. We both love Branford and it's quaint New England charm. Combined with the seaside beauty this town has to offer we jumped at the chance to buy this property. It was the "ugly" house on the street when we acquired it in 2000. A very dated and structurally different ranch, my wife, who should have become an architect came up with a great design. By 2003 we transformed this ugly duckling into one of the most talked about homes on the street. Work has taken us to CA but we look forward to our trips back to CT to visit with family and friend and to stay in our lovely home on the east coast. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.

Anthony Malaro purchased this house in 2000
Why Anthony Malaro chose Branford

Branford is a wonderful New England town that has managed to attract some great restaurants, quality healthcare facilities and is convenient to almost everything while maintaining a quaint feel. Being right on the water is wonderful experience and each community within Branford has a feel of its own to appeal to everyone.

Pine Orchard, 6/12

4 of 5
Submitted: November 6, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
We found this rental comfortable and well-suited for a family with grown children and grandchildren. Each family branch can be accommodated in different wings of the house, each with its own bathroom facilities. The yard is spacious and great for kids' games. We were disappointed, however, that we did not have access to the nearby beach, as advertised. The beach was cordoned off for restoration efforts from the effects of hurricane Irene the year before. In light of the damage wreaked on the Atlantic coastline from Sandy (Oct. '12), we would advise that you check with the town of Branford about the status of beach access at Pine Orchard for 2013 rentals.
Recommended for:  Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children
Owner's Response: Hello and thanks for the review. We apologize for the inconvenience with regards to the beach access. There are several other locations to access the beach and we should have given you the directions to them as they are all within walking distance from the house. The access at the end of our street is anticipated to be reopened in 2013.

We hope to see you again.

Branford is a delightful small CT town,historic,friendly,with good amenities.
The house is in a great neighbourhood,it's well described...comfortable spacious and well equipped [tho being British as ever in the US we missed a Kettle]..downstairs the lounging,dining and kitchen work very well and the upstairs bedrooms are particularly pleasant....this all sounds a bit formal the bottom line is we had a great time and the owners were very helpful...our local favourites were Lennys at Indian Neck [great lobster and steak],plus the seafood shop there....Stony Creek harbour and host to Thimble Island cruises,it was a short stroll to our beach and of those a little further afield the beach at Madison topped our list.Yale was a must see and easily accessible.In addition to the food outlets I would commend The Meat Store [deli & high Quality meat] and adjoining wine emporium en route to the house from I 95 and the nearby Big Y supermarket. 55 was great to relax in and to return to..I'd happily recommend it to friends and would certainly return...almost forgot to mention Thursday Jazz on the Green in summer was super.Enjoy !!

Family reunion in Branford

4 of 5
Submitted: May 29, 2012 Stayed: May 2012
We rented this house for a family reunion. With family members coming from NY, NJ and Boston, Branford proved to be an excellent location. This house is as beautiful as shown in pictures in a charming, quite and an upscale neighborhood. We found the house immaculately clean with a dream kitchen and has a huge open layout floor plan perfect for non-stop mingling. Quite street and fenced backyard allowed kids to make full use of the outside. We made a trip to Hammonasset Beach State Park (where you should go after 4 pm to save considerable amount on parking fee) taking the scenic Rt 146 and returned back to via I-95, which was very quick!

The air conditioning in the main level of house is a little uneven with a few rooms getting cooler than other. Having a few floor fans can help in better circulating the air through living room.

All in all, we will have good memories of this family vacation :) Thanks Tony for quick turnaround on all the emails and providing us appropriate information in timely fashion.

An 80th Birthday and Then Some!

5 of 5
Submitted: September 13, 2011 Stayed: July 2011
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We were searching for the perfect site for my mom's 80th birthday party as well as a comfortable home for the week close to the beach, restaurants and area attractions. This house certainly fit the bill. The neighborhood was quiet yet close to all of the local restaurants. The lay out of the house is perfect for entertaining. The front and back yard was spacious and private. While close to everything Branford and Connecticut has to offer, we found ourselves relaxing at the house, playing games and cooking great meals in the well equipped kitchen. I made the mistake of bringing platters and miscellaneous kitchen items that were not needed since they had everything one could need to cook. Thank you Tony and Magie for a wonderful stay. We will be back!

Branford Rental

5 of 5
Submitted: May 9, 2011 Stayed: May 2011
We contacted the owners to arrange a weekend rental for my nephew's wedding in Branford. The owners were very easy to work with and they provided us with all the information about the house and a list of all of the amenities. We really enjoyed our stay. My brother and his wife and two children and my family stayed for the weekend. It was very clean and there was plenty of room and the house was well equipped. There was an hour in between the wedding and ceremony so we had other family members join us for cocktails. We were able to sit out on the back deck and enjoy the beautiful day while the kids played baseball in the private backyard. the house is located in a quiet residential area not far from town. I would highly recommend this rental!
