Classic Colonial charm meets strong income potential in the heart of the sought-after East Rock neighborhood.

Residents enjoy second and third floor balconies, on-site laundry, basement storage, and separate utilities. Recent updates include kitchens, electrical panels, hot water heaters, roof, and exterior paint. The property offers five off-street parking spaces and sits on a 0.17-acre lot. Ideally located near East Rock Park, local markets, restaurants, and neighborhood shops, with easy access to public transit and the Yale shuttle.
