Property Description
Experience the coastal lifestyle of West Island, where beach days, salt air, boating, and the natural beauty of Buzzards Bay are part of everyday life. Set in one of Fairhaven’s most distinctive seaside communities, 129 Balsam Street offers the opportunity to enjoy island living as a year-round residence, summer retreat, or coastal getaway. The home’s comfortable layout provides inviting spaces for gathering, relaxing, and entertaining, while its location puts the best of West Island right outside your door. Spend summer days at West Island Town Beach, explore the shoreline and walking trails of the West Island State Reservation, launch a kayak or paddleboard, or simply enjoy an evening walk as the sun sets over the island. West Island is connected to the mainland by causeway, giving you the atmosphere of an island community without sacrificing convenient access to Fairhaven, New Bedford, shopping, dining, marinas, and major routes. Whether you're searching for a Fairhaven beach house, a South Coast vacation home, or a place to embrace a quieter coastal lifestyle year-round, 129 Balsam Street delivers a location that is increasingly difficult to replicate. Come discover why West Island remains one of the South Coast’s most sought-after coastal communities. Schedule your private showing today.
