Charming ranch-style home in the West Shore section of West Haven with 2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, 1 half-bathroom and approximately 1800 sq ft of finished space (including 180 finished sq ft in a beautiful sun room (with windows on 3 sides) and 612 sq ft in the finished (walkout) lower level). Located within a short walking distance of approximately 5 minutes from the beach, the home has been thoughtfully maintained and appreciated by the current selling family for the last 22 years. The home was built in 1958 and has 0.14 acres (with some fencing in the backyard and a shed). The home has vinyl siding and newer vinyl replacement windows. The entire driveway was repaved in the last few years and extends from the street to behind the home where it leads to the one car garage (under the home) and also has enough paved space for 2 additional vehicles. Upon entering at the front door, you notice that the home has a easy and comfortable flow from the living room, to the dining room, and hallway which leads to the full bathroom and 2 bedrooms. All rooms on the main living level have hardwood floors (with the exception of the bathroom, kitchen and sun room). Off the living room is the eat-in kitchen which leads to the sun room - the perfect room to enjoy all seasons living near the beach from sunrise to sunset. In the finished (walkout) lower level, there is large finished area (including a laundry area) and a half bathroom.
The next owner of this property may decide to make the finished lower level into a family room, playroom, office or some other purpose. The (gas) boiler and (gas) water heater are estimated to be approximately 15 years old. The roof is estimated to be approximately 10 years old. The home is connected to public water and sewers. Ideal location for working at Yale's West Campus and its Downtown New Haven location, and UNH. Easy commuting w access to I95, the West Haven train station and only minutes to Milford and its town center. Property to be sold in AS IS condition.
West Shore, located between New Haven Harbor and Milford Point, is a coastal and residential West Haven neighborhood with a long beach strand and salt-marsh edges. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Beach Street at Ocean Avenue, where seasonal foot traffic meets casual seafood counters, corner markets, and shoreline strolls. Pillars include Stowe’s Seafood, Turk’s Seafood, and the Savin Rock Museum, each tying daily life to the water and local history. Low-slung capes and mid-century ranches sit behind dune grass and pocket parks. Bradley Point Park frames wide views across Long Island Sound. Side streets lead to boardwalk stretches and small marinas that keep the pace tied to tides.
