About This Home
Nestled on over 2 private acres, this charming home offers the warmth and character of a Northern New England retreat while providing the comfort and functionality of everyday living. A welcoming entry opens into a large living room featuring soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace the perfect gathering place in every season. With its functional layout, the open space eat-in kitchen flows effortlessly with French doors to a Trex deck overlooking the peaceful backyard, creating an ideal setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or simply enjoying the tranquility of nature. The thoughtfully designed main level includes two bedrooms, a full bath, and a convenient laundry room for one-level living. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms, a second full bath, and an abundance of natural light that fills the space with warmth and charm. A detached two-car garage offers exceptional versatility, with unfinished upper-level space ideal for a future studio or creative retreat. Hatchway access leads to the basement, housing the home's mechanical systems while providing ample storage space. If you've been searching for privacy, character, and a serene country setting with timeless New England appeal, this special property is ready to welcome you home. NOTE: Zillow lists the 2025 property taxes as $15,289; however, this figure is incorrect because it does not reflect Hamden's four-year tax phase-in program.
