Some homes you walk through, this one you settle into! Perched in Fair Haven Heights, this pristine, move-in-ready two-family is the rare find that delivers character, flexibility, and a front-row seat to New Haven's best sunsets. The sprawling front porch is the star. Wide enough for rocking chairs at one end and a Sunday brunch table at the other, it catches golden hour with cinematic ease. Inside, both units have 2 bedrooms and 1 bath with heated tile floors, shiny refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, sun-soaked rooms, and tasteful updates throughout. Large fenced yard with patio area, Freshly painted exterior, Newer heating system, and many more recent upgrades. Nothing to do but unpack. Live in one, lease the other. House two generations under one roof. Or hold it as a turnkey investment in a neighborhood where demand only climbs. Walk to the riverfront. Bike the Farmington Canal trail. Reach Yale, downtown dining, and the Shubert in roughly 10 minutes - close to everything yet removed from the noise. Fair Haven Heights rewards those who value waterfront walkability, architectural soul, and a real sense of community. Properties like this - turnkey, two-family, with a porch built for living - do not sit long. Schedule your private showing today!
