54 Norris St, Hamden, CT 06517

54 Norris Street is home to a traditional, almost historic 1920's Colonial home with modern finishes. It lies in Spring Glen, Hamden, the most amazing neighborhood, and this house in particular sits among the most amazing neighbors. Walking distance to schools, restaurants, coffee, shopping, worship, banking, dry cleaning, physicians and so much more. Spring Glen is just the right mix of city and nature with bus and bike routes directly to Yale New Haven and Quinnipiac, yet you also get the beauty of tree lined streets, sidewalks, nature trails and closeness to hiking and parks. This home welcomes you with its warm entrance and moody colors displaying a center brick fireplace with wide deep mantle. You will then be led into the recently remodeled kitchen with custom built cabinets, brass hardware and sunny garden window perfect for plants, succulents and herbs. A separate dreamy dining room with original built-in glass hutch has wide entrances into the rear addition and formal living room. This home has been updated with modern conveniences such as central AC, solar panels, stainless steel appliances and a large family room addition with its own entrance and lots of windows overlooking the deep, kid-friendly, semi-private backyard with brick patio, Kloter Farms shed and original working fire pit built in the 1920s. It hosts four bedrooms, including the finished hallway walk-up attic with in-set wall storage, perfect for a teenager or in-home office space. Two full bathrooms; the first floor with a fully tiled oversized shower and the second floor with a large steel tub and shower. The side sunroom allows natural light to flow throughout the first floor. There is custom wall and ceiling trim throughout the house and many built-in, period-correct shelving and storage units. Many original attributes such as gas radiators, glass door knobs, wide door trim and darkly finished hardwood floors make this house truly special. Outside the mature landscaping hugs the front stone wall and brick walkway. The exterior has been recently painted and is beautifully maintained. NO smoking in the house. No pets allowed.
