Property Description

**Highest and Best Offers due by end of day Tuesday May 12th, 2026** The original staircase sets the tone: turned wood banister, plastered walls, and a leaded glass window on the landing that's been catching afternoon light since 1921. This West Haven two-family carries the kind of architectural detail that new construction can't replicate: hardwood floors throughout both units, brick fireplaces in each living room, bay windows, high ceilings that give each room more air than the floor plan suggests, and a butler's pantry with original glass-front cabinetry. Both units are currently vacant. Each mirrors the other, with 5 rooms and 1,392 square feet per floor, a fireplaced living room, bay windows, and hardwood floors throughout. 4 bedrooms total, 2 full baths, 10 rooms across 2,784 square feet of living area. Utilities are fully independent: two gas boilers, two hot water heaters, two gas meters, and two electric panels. A third-floor half-story adds over 1,300 square feet of unfinished space, framed and accessible, with real potential for additional living area subject to permitting. Full unfinished basement for storage below. Outside, a covered front porch, level 0.23-acre lot, and a detached garage at the rear. Decades of family ownership, the structural bones of a 1921 build with room to update to current standards. Shore Line East commuter rail and West Haven's shoreline park are both within minutes.
