Description

Attention Investors and Visionaries! The historic Samuel Wadsworth House offers a rare opportunity overlooking the beauty of Wooster Square Park. This residence is currently arranged as three units, with the main house spanning three generous floors of living space. Once configured as two separate apartments, the main house features expansive living, dining, and family rooms, along with multiple rooms on the upper floors. Behind the main house, you'll find two more residences: a charming studio on the lower level and a one-bedroom apartment above. Utilities for these three units are separate for both electric and gas, and the property currently has three separate heating and hot water systems. Hardwood floors run throughout, and oversized windows frame views of the park, gardens, and landscaped yard. Parking is available with tandem space for two cars in the driveway, which could be widened for easier access while maintaining the posts and fencing. While the units will benefit from updating, the combination of historic character, prime location, and flexible layout makes this property a standout investment in one of New Haven's most desirable neighborhoods.
