Description
Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained side-by-side duplex in the heart of Whitneyville-just minutes to downtown New Haven and Yale, and walkable to East Rock, Edgerton Park, the Eli Whitney Center trails, and neighborhood favorites like the Playwright pub. With classic curb appeal and a stately single-entry facade, this property feels more like two single-family homes under one roof. Each unit offers three levels of sunny living space, plus a private basement and attic. The first floor includes a living room, formal dining room, and updated kitchen-one featuring quartz countertops, the other with a farmhouse sink. Upstairs, each unit has two bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor, plus a third bedroom on the third floor. Both units' primary bedrooms include walk-in closets, and in the winter months, you'll enjoy beautiful views of East Rock from the upper floors. Each side also includes a private basement with laundry and utility hookups-one unit with a finished bonus room perfect for an office or den. Additional highlights include hardwood floors throughout, generous closet space, attic eave storage for each unit, and private rear entries. Out back, you'll find a shared patio area with room for each unit to place a grill, plus a family-friendly backyard with dedicated outdoor storage space for each unit. One unit is currently leased month-to-month; the other is currently occupied but will be delivered vacant in June - perfect for owners.
