About This Home
Charming, move-in-ready ranch at 221 Third Avenue in West Haven! This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers 925 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space, perfect for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors. The show-stopper is the renovated kitchen: white shaker cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a tumbled-stone backsplash create a bright, functional space for cooking and entertaining. Gleaming hardwood floors carry through the open living and dining areas, where oversized windows fill the rooms with natural light and views of the private, tree-lined yard. The primary bedroom is generously sized, and the second bedroom flexes easily as a home office, den, or nursery. Downstairs, the full basement has been transformed into an impressive home gym - complete with a squat rack, punching bag, and cable machine - plus a dedicated laundry area, adding valuable bonus space beyond the main floor. Outside, the level 0.17-acre lot is fenced and framed by mature trees and plantings, with a paved driveway and welcoming front walkway. Tucked on a quiet residential street just 0.4 miles from Washington School and minutes from West Haven High School, shopping, dining, and the shoreline, this updated ranch checks every box.
