Location, location, location! Built in 1930 this delightful cottage on the Woodmont Shores offers year-round living …or an opportunity for a perfect weekend retreat. Large open porches on
the first and second floor beckon you to relax, taking in the terrific water views of this picturesque cove and distant views of the boating traffic into New Haven
Harbor. What a spot to watch the Tall Ships go sailing by in the year 2000. Those who love to walk will enjoy sleepy side streets and long stretches of side
walk along the edge of the water and a small play ground just steps away will keep the little ones happy.
While the outside of this classic shore home shows few changes the inside is a far cry from it's original design.  A dramatic curved solid oak staircase has become the focal point of the first floor great room where walls were removed and the dining area raised to enhance the
diner's water view. A fireplace with a wood/coal burning stove insert and a large galley kitchen with laundry facilities and a full bath were added. Sliders from the
great room and a side door from the kitchen lead out to a wood deck and the fenced in back yard.
The second floor houses 2 bedrooms, each with sliding doors to the shared upper porch.  A full bath is adjacent to one of the bedrooms making it ideal as a
master or guest suite.
And then there is the piece de resistance, a stunning finished third floor with beamed ceiling and full bath, presently used as the master suite.
Each room in the house is heated individually by electric baseboard heat, ideal if you plan to use it as a weekend get-away and there is a security system for those who worry.
The home is vinyl clad for easy maintenance. An attached garage offers parking for two compact cars in tandem and there are three large storage sheds for beach chairs and beach umbrellas, etc.
