Property Description

Welcome to 253 Kneeland Rd, A meticulously maintained 3BR, 2BA home w/ additional finished living areas, ideal for extended family, guests, or home office space. Vintage charm in a prime New Haven location. Proudly cared for by the original owners, this turn-key gem features a newer roof & gutters, windows, 200A electric, boiler & water heater - providing peace of mind for years to come. Inside, enjoy high-end custom cabinetry, beautiful woodwork, classic knotty pine details, charming interior shutters, & even a fully functioning vintage 1950s GE stove adding timeless character to the kitchen. Just off the kitchen the enclosed sunporch provides flexible space for relaxing, dining, or entertaining year-round. The home offers 3 official bedrooms & two bathrooms - plus a heated, finished lower level with a full bath - previously used as a bedroom/suite. The lower level also includes a secondary kitchen ready for refinishing, offering in-law potential. Main level has 2 bedrooms; the 2nd floor features 1 bedroom + game room/office w/ walk-in closets & a custom cedar closet. Outside, the yard feels like a storybook retreat. Mature shrubbery surrounds the home for exceptional privacy, while rose gardens, hydrangeas, terraced stone walls & ivy create a serene, low-maintenance oasis. A private road leads to a rare 2-car garage in back, while the tree-lined, sidewalked front street offers more parking & welcoming neighborhood feel. Close to Highways, Yale, East Shore Park, Tweed.
