About this House

Great opportunity to own a home in Orange! This colonial farmhouse-style home with 3 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom and 1 half-bathroom has 1399 sq ft of living space. Sited on 0.23 acres, this home has tremendous potential - especially if you bring your ideas, creativity and energy! Built in 1895, has been owned by one family since 1953. The home has an attractive layout with the master bedroom and full bathroom on the first floor. The 1st floor also has an easy flow between the large living room, the dining room and the kitchen. The living room, dining room and 1st floor bedroom have carpeting with hardwood floors underneath. There are two additional bedrooms and half bathroom on the upper living level. The home currently has well water (although public water is nearby on a neighboring street) and a septic system. The well pump was installed in 2019. The hot air (oil) furnace was installed in 2011. The (electric) water heater is 2-3 years old and there is a newer oil tank (less than 5 yrs old). (The home has potential for gas service as there is a gas line on Taft St.) This home has a fantastic location with incredible convenience to RT 34 and RT 15. Great commuting location for Yale, Downtown New Haven, Fairfield County and Hartford. The Amity Middle School (Orange) is a five minute walk and Race Brook School is a 5 minute drive. This home is being sold in "AS IS" condition.
