This legal three-family residence is housed in a historic 1840s home with a post-and-beam frame and notable period details, including curved front stairs with hand-carved balustrades and rail, wide-plank wood floors, and decorative mantels. The property includes replacement windows, mostly rewired electric with a house panel plus an additional panel ready for solar, and a roof installed in 2022. Laundry is located in the basement. The combined third and fourth floor apartment layout offers an owner-occupant option, with three bedrooms and 1,350+ square feet available as configured, and room to expand to a larger four-bedroom, two-bath configuration with additional cosmetic changes. Outside, there is a small backyard area, a shed, and four off-street parking spots. The entire house has been repainted, and the driveway/parking lot has been repaved.

The property is described as being in the heart of East Rock and within the Worthington Hooker School Attendance Zone. It is steps from East Rock Park/playground and near East Rock-area shops and cafes on Orange Street, with an easy walk to Yale and downtown. It is also positioned about a half block from a Yale Shuttle stop and approximately 4.5 blocks from Worthington Hooker, with easy on/off access for routes 91/95.

For tenants or owner occupants, this structure provides three separate apartments with long-term stable tenancy and basement laundry. For investors, the current leases are stated to end 7/31/26, and the seller indicates units can be left clean and empty at closing or re-rented at new rent based on new owner preference. The home’s updates and flexible upper-floor configuration support multiple ways to use the property depending on occupancy goals.
