Gracious center hall colonial, one of the finest designs by renowned builder Alice Washburn, is located in the sought-after Blake Road neighborhood-just minutes to Yale, East Rock Park, and Hamden Hall, St. Thomas, and Foote Schools. Set back on a professionally landscaped knoll, the home enjoys privacy and sweeping views. Classic Washburn detailing throughout, including a welcoming foyer with signature staircase and impeccable woodwork. Large formal living room with wood-burning fireplace opens to a greenery-filled solarium. Updated kitchen features a center island, ample stainless steel counters, and a cozy breakfast nook. Formal dining room with access to a private flagstone patio. Warm library/family room lined with knotty pine paneling evokes vintage charm. The second floor offers an oversized primary suite with a period en-suite bath, an adjoining sunroom/office, and a smaller bedroom-ideal as a nursery. Two additional spacious bedrooms and a full bath are located at the opposite end. The third floor includes two more bedrooms (one with a charming sitting porch) and a full bath. Lower level features a vintage rec room with a wet bar and patterned vinyl flooring (currently not in use), plus laundry and storage.
