    What's special

    Bring back to life an era of romance, glamour and elegance in this timeless 1930s Mediterranean-style gem nestled in the heart of New Haven on a picturesque tree-lined and sidewalk-lined street. This remarkable home is a true testament to a time where elevated aesthetics and elaborate architecture mattered while offering the perfect backdrop for creating a lifetime of cherished memories. Step through the double set of front doors and be greeted by a sweeping staircase that sets the tone for the grandeur that awaits. The first floor is thoughtfully designed for both intimate fireside gatherings and larger celebrations, with spacious living areas that flow seamlessly from one room to the next. The second level offers four generously sized bedrooms, although the town card reflects three. The front-facing rooms feature charming Juliet balconies, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or an evening breeze. The primary suite is a sanctuary of its own, boasting a luxurious en suite bath, a walk-in closet, and a dedicated dressing room. This home is a rare find that currently requires significant work to bring back all its glory. Don't miss the opportunity to restore this architectural masterpiece to make it your own. Welcome home! The home is being presented in its "as-is" condition and priced accordingly. The water is currently shut off with known plumbing issues. The sunroom ceiling has collapsed and allowed water intrusion that has caused damage and air quality concerns. The basement has also taken on water in the larger storms and may be a result of the roof failing in the sunroom. This home will not comply for tradition financing and should be considered by cash purchasers. Buyer to perform own due diligence.
