About 538 Second Ave 2nd Fl
Second-floor 4-bedroom, 2-bath apartment with a bonus office at 538 Second Avenue in West Haven, Connecticut. This is a pretty spacious unit with a layout that gives you options. There are multiple full-size bedrooms, plus an extra room that works well as an office or smaller bedroom. A lot of the apartment has hardwood floors, and the bedrooms get good natural light with multiple windows. The kitchen has plenty of cabinet space, a full appliance setup, and enough room to actually move around and use it comfortably. You also get a second-floor porch, which is a nice bonus for some outdoor space, along with off-street parking. The location is easy to work with day to day. You're not far from the shoreline and West Haven Beach, and just a short drive into New Haven, Connecticut for restaurants, shopping, and commuting. There are also local stores and everyday essentials close by, so you don't have to go far for what you need.
