Katerina - I loved taking them too! Stony Creek is such a vibrant part of Branford and a place I so enjoy visiting.
Jeff - I can't tell you how much that means coming up you. I have always been so envious of the outstanding Localism posts you have done in your market. :)
Hi Donna,
What a picturesque place! Love your photos. And that's a pretty wide price range, from the mid $200,000's to over $7 million. You must have some amazing places.
Lynda - That's what makes the Stony Creek area so attractive. There aren't too many homes that sell in that lower price range but they pop up every so often. The average price range is typically more in the $450's to $550's unless one of the more direct waterfront homes or one of the Thimble Islands are sold.
Hi Donna-Beautiful photos and video. That is certainly a gorgeous area and congrats on the feature. :-)
Donna very nice post, I love the names.It looks like a great area. Hope you get some contacts from your post.
Donna, look at that, what a beautiful post! And having just been there, I can attest to how amazing it is. If they want to live on oceanfront, that is an awesome place to live! And a well deserved star I might add!
Donna - Great localism posts - I love the architecture and water - all captured very nicely by your photos.
Donna -- and excellent post... and I think you will get a lot of activity due to the wonderful photos, commentary and video! Just wondering what is the price range? What are typical lot sizes?

Joan - Prices can range anywhere from the mid to upper $200's into the millions for a waterfront estate or and island retreat. Lot sizes vary too...a few quite small but others can be anywhere from .25 acres to over 1 acre.
Carole - You just have to stop by and visit the time you drive through.
Donna, those are beautiful big houses on the water. Branford is on of those towns that just screems out New England :)
George - The homes on the Thimble Island are just so exquisite. Some of them are tied in with electricity and running water and can be occupied year round.
