Rare opportunity to own a distinctive home in the highly sought-after Lighthouse section of New Haven - just a short walk to Lighthouse Point Park, the beach, and scenic shoreline views of Long Island Sound. This one-of-a-kind property offers character and flexibility. Both bedrooms are located on the second floor, each accessed separately - one via a staircase from the living room and the other via a spiral staircase from the den. There is no connecting hallway between the bedrooms, creating a unique setup that may be ideal for creative space use, guest quarters, home office separation, or flexible living arrangements. The main level features two comfortable living spaces, one of which has a cozy woodstove! The unbeatable location provides easy access to parks, waterfront walking paths, Tweed-New Haven Airport, Metro North, downtown New Haven, Yale University, and I-95. Perfect for buyers seeking a Lighthouse neighborhood home near the beach with character and personality - not your typical cookie-cutter layout. If you've been looking for something different in one of New Haven's most desirable shoreline communities, this may be the one.
