Buy A Beach House In New London, Connecticut

Average Home List Price: $242,392

This is a seaport city that was the second-largest whaling port in the entire world back in the 19th century. It sits at the mouth of the Thames River, which is where the name comes from, and empties into the Long Island Sound.

What we’re getting at is that this area boasts a whole bunch of waterfront properties. Water lovers can find some beautiful homes with stunning views starting at around the $150,000 range.

For instance, you can get a standard two-bedroom condo with an asking price of $149,900, while a two-bedroom condo with seasonal dock space available can be found at about $255,000.

Both types of properties are less than a 10-minute drive from Ocean Beach Park, a New England beach with magnificent sand, a boardwalk, and, for those who want to stay away from the sea, a pool. There’s also an amusement park for the kids and grandkids, plus plenty of eateries, bars, cafes, and arts centers when you want to take a break from the UV rays.
