Come home to this well-maintained colonial that blends historic charm and modern updates. With a separate detached in-law suite and driveway, this property is perfect for generating rental income or generational living. Built on what was once a fruit farm, this home boasts thoughtful updates such as a recently replaced roof (2022), central air conditioning/forced air heating (2022), and beautiful hardwood flooring. Enjoy the renovated kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances (2023), including a three-stage reverse osmosis drinking water filtration system (2023), butcher block countertops, and a custom coffee/tea bar. Relax with the view of an ephemeral stream from the lower deck or the deck off of the primary bedroom which also features a full bathroom. Both additional bedrooms have recently re-finished original hardwood flooring and one includes a half bath and a walk-up partially finished attic. Conveniently located near Sleeping Giant State Park and a short commute to New Haven, don't miss your chance to call this your new home!
Enjoy the elegance and uniqueness of this colonial home built in 1875 without the headaches & worries of an older home as updates include new mechanical systems and a brand-new roof. Located in the highly desirable Mount Carmel district of Hamden, this home is just 1 mile from Sleeping Giant Park and Quinnipiac University. The dedicated entryway leads into an open floor plan showcasing a large family/living area and dining room. Cozy-up by the brick fireplace during chilly winter nights while sipping on hot chocolate or a cocktail. The oversized wrap-around deck is perfect for entertaining while enjoying the quaint views of the brook and lightly wooded yard. The sunroom, located off the family room, is ideal for an office or library. There are 3 bedrooms on the second level and a finished walk-up attic on the third floor. The primary bedroom highlights a full bath and screened-in deck. First floor laundry/half bath is tucked away off the well-maintained kitchen. The "icing on the cake" is that this home has a separate, legal rental apartment in the former detached garage. Property must be owner occupied.
