Property Description

Charming Victorian in the heart of Westville's desirable Maplewood neighborhood! Situated on a deep, level corner lot with mature, professionally maintained landscaping, this impeccably maintained home blends timeless character with thoughtful updates. Positioned well back from the street for added privacy, the property features a welcoming wraparound porch, rear deck, balcony, and fire pit area, ideal for relaxing or entertaining, plus off-street parking for two cars. Inside, the bright interior showcases beautiful original hardwood floors (including select inlay details), crown molding, and period trim throughout. The light-filled eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances flows into the dining room and inviting living room with fireplace and built-in glass cabinetry. Upstairs, a spacious primary bedroom offers a large walk-in closet and direct access to an unfinished walk-up attic with excellent expansion potential. The upper full bath features classic subway tile in excellent condition, while the main level full bath has been recently updated. Additional highlights include recently painted interior and exterior, Nest thermostat, motion-sensor lighting, and ample storage with unfinished basement and attic. Ideally located near Westville Village with easy access to downtown New Haven, Yale University and Yale New Haven Hospital, and excellent commuter convenience via Route 15, I-91, I-95, and Metro-North Railroad.
