Enjoy the best southwest facing sunset views! Mother nature never fails to provide photo ready moments while overlooking the post card like vistas of the historic Southwest Ledge Lighthouse, Lighthouse Point Park and Morris Creek Preserve. Once you have taken in the views you can get excited about knowing they are at your disposal every day from the association's private beach, the unit's elevated balcony or if you prefer, privately from within this gloriously gut renovated unit. Stylish and chic finishes throughout, this award winning builder pursued this passion project when she discovered this hidden gem of a community. The quiet end unit boasts a beautifully renovated open concept kitchen, new appliances including a beverage fridge, open shelving, designer tile, quartz counters and a clear view of the sound. There are refinished hardwood floors throughout, two and a half new bathrooms, new HVAC, with the entire home freshly painted for a seamless connection to the blue skies. The association amenities include a private beach with stair access in the center of complex, heated in-ground pool and clubhouse. For more outside fun, fish right off the sea wall and rock formation, launch your raft, kayak or canoe nearby or walk the shoreline to collect colorful sea glass and sea shells. Set in a super convenient location, you can bike to bustling Downtown New Haven, Yale & train station for easy commuting to NYC (less then six miles).
