About This Home
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!
