12 East Avenue

The beach house you've been dreaming of is finally here! Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to own a stunning, 3-Bed, 2-Bath Colonial overlooking the picturesque Long Island Sound. Nestled on the corner of Beach St and East Ave, this home features breathtaking views as well as a one-minute walk to West Haven beach, making it a lucrative investment property that's tailor-made for Airbnb (Net income for 2024 was $77,738!). As you step in through the front door, you're warmly greeted with natural hardwood floors and an open floor plan that includes a dining room with fireplace, living room, and updated eat-in kitchen with white cabinets, granite countertops, and SS appliances. The main floor also boasts a washer & dryer and a full bathroom with walk-in shower. Upstairs you'll find a second full bathroom with soaking tub, and three generously sized bedrooms, including a primary with a walk-out balcony that's perfect for enjoying an early morning cup of coffee while watching breathtaking sunrises over the sound. A bonus third floor has a large, finished loft that's ideal for an office or bonus guest room. A wrap-around porch offers a peaceful retreat for relaxing and listening to the waves crash against the shore. With a newer architectural roof, vinyl siding, insulation, tankless furnace, and AC split units throughout, this home is energy efficient and practically worry-free. There's also a full basement with high ceilings and the potential for finishing. The property is already zoned for a 2-car garage and could possibly house a small bungalow for additional income. Home can be sold furnished for an additional $5,000. Seller would prefer to sell home furnished. Per owner, former tackle shop building across the street is being converted to a 2-story coffee shop and former motel in rear on Beach St is being converted to high end condos. Net income for Airbnb and Furnished Finders (after operating costs) was $77,738 for 2024.
