    What's special

    Beautiful split-level home in central Hamden! 3 bedrooms & 2 baths. Numerous updates over the years to kitchen, baths, floors, and other components make this a wonderful opportunity. The main level has an open-flow living room/dining room and full kitchen. Up the half-flight of stairs is a primary bedroom and two additional bedrooms. Down a half-flight is a spacious den, with doors leading out to a fully enclosed sunroom/porch. The enclosed porch connects directly to a beautiful stone patio, perfect for grilling or outdoor hang-outs. Open up the windows and let the breeze come through the fully screened porch to feel like you're outside, yet enjoying the comforts of an enclosed space, complete with built-in dry bar. This sunroom adds 216 SF of functional 3-season living space not represented in the conditioned square footage total. There is a one-car garage, a wood-burning fireplace, and a 600 SF basement for additional storage.
