Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of City Island, this home maintains classic character with quality finishes, offering the perfect retreat for today's lifestyle.

A modern half bath completes the main floor. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, each with refinished hardwood floors, ample closet space, and brand-new windows. The fully remodeled full bath features a spa-inspired design, complete with modern tile work and high-end fixtures. Make your way to the finished walk-out basement, which adds over 500 square feet of additional living space, perfect for a home office, gym, rec room or in-law/guest suite — whatever fits your needs. Outside, enjoy a private, fenced backyard — great for morning coffee, summer barbecues, or relaxing with friends and family. And yes — a private driveway means no more street parking! Perfectly situated just steps from City Island’s beloved shops, excellent seafood restaurants, waterfront marinas, scenic parks, and top-rated P.S. 175, with easy access to the express bus to Manhattan — this home delivers on all fronts.
