About This Home

As of May 2025

Amazing and rare opportunity to own a beautiful, freshly renovated multi-family home in the Whitneyville section of Hamden and just minutes away from downtown New Haven. This house is great for Owner-Occupied or for renting out both units by utilizing the close proximity to Quinnipiac University and Yale University & Hospital. Beautiful mature plantings and well-maintained landscape surround the three-story, vinyl sided home with a free-standing 2-car garage and private backyard. Each unit has a front and rear private entrance. The rear of each unit leads to a private deck space to enjoy your morning coffee. Through both entrances, you will enter the well lit living rooms with the abundance of natural lighting, flowing into the spacious dining rooms which transitions nicely between the kitchens and living areas. Both units have been updated with new kitchens, bathrooms, and beautiful hardwood floors! 3rd floor which is extension of the 2nd Unit, has additional 2 bedrooms with newly finished hardwood floors and additional space which can be used for a home office or studio. Water heaters and boilers have been upgraded to Natural Gas in 2015. Baseboard and cast-iron radiators efficiently provide heat throughout both units and the 1st floor has the convenience of Central Air to stay comfortable and cool in the summer months. Just minutes to all highways, transportation and shopping.
