North Haven, CT

Buying or selling a home in North Haven

North Haven is the town for people who want to be minutes from New Haven without living in the city. It has strong schools, a busy retail and dining scene along Washington Avenue, and a mix of older neighborhoods and newer developments. I help buyers and sellers here figure out what fits their budget and their life.

About the town

What North Haven is like

North Haven is a suburban town of about 24,000 just northeast of New Haven on the Quinnipiac River. It separated from New Haven in 1786 and has grown into a bedroom community with good schools, parks, and easy highway access.

Market note

North Haven attracts buyers who want more space and better schools than the city offers. Homes move steadily, and the mix of styles means pricing has to be done street by street.

About 10 to 15 minutes to New Haven via I-91, with express bus service as well. It's one of the shortest commutes in the area.
