About This Home

As of June 2025

Located in the desirable Lake Whitney area of Hamden, this updated Colonial offers a blend of classic charm & modern updates. The home features 3 bedrooms & 2 full baths, along with a partially finished lower level, providing comfortable living spaces for all! Upon entering, you'll be welcomed by a glass-enclosed three-season front porch, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the surroundings. The spacious living room boasts hardwood floors and a cozy fireplace, creating an inviting atmosphere. Adjacent to the living room is a recently updated cherry kitchen with granite countertops, modern appliances and central island with seating. The kitchen seamlessly opens to the dining room, which is enhanced by French doors leading to a multi-level Trex deck. This outdoor space is an entertainer's dream, featuring a hot tub for five, a bar, grill, built-in seating and more. To finish off the inside of the main level there is a full bathroom and a rear mud room which is great for keeping messes out of the actual living space. Additionally, the property includes updated bathrooms, a finished lower-level rec room & an unfinished floored walk-up attic, offering ample storage or potential for future expansion. The detached 1-car garage & level, front & rear irrigation, fenced lot add to the home's appeal, providing both convenience & privacy. Situated on a quiet street in the Whitneyville neighborhood, this home offers easy access to local amenities, schools & major highways.
