About this home

Recently updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath first floor rental just two blocks from the water, offering easy coastal living in a prime East Norwalk location. The layout includes primary bedroom en suite. You will also find a bright eat-in kitchen with plenty of room to gather, along with the convenience of in-unit washer and dryer, off-street parking and the Landlord takes care of the yard. There is plenty of extra storage in the lower level. This is a dream spot for anyone who loves the outdoors-paddleboarding, kayaking, and peaceful waterfront walks are all just steps away. You're also within walking distance to local favorites like Harbor Harvest, plus a variety of nearby restaurants and shops that give the neighborhood its relaxed, coastal vibe. Commuters will love the convenience of being just an 8-minute walk to the East Norwalk Metro-North Station, making trips into Manhattan simple and stress-free. When you're ready to unwind, you're only minutes from Calf Pasture Beach and the lively dining and nightlife scene in South Norwalk.
