For Sale

965 Quinnipiac Avenue is Currently for Sale by Owner.


If you don't know this area, you must see this amazing photography by our neighbor Ian Christmann at http://www.considerthequinnipiac.com/ !! And after you've seen how beautiful it is, take a look at this historic Victorian style farmhouse that overlooks the Quinnipiac River in the beautiful neighborhood depicted in that website!!!

This 3 family home is a great investment now more then ever!

The prominent 4200 square foot Victorian Farmhouse has been kept in beautiful condition. This recognized landmark boasts a remodeled kitchen and several original/antique features! The first floor apartment consists of the entire first floor and half of the second along with the basement and workshop. Enjoy oversized, well appointed rooms throughout.

The remainder of the second floor is a small, one bedroom apartment perfect as an in-law or home office. The third floor is an enormous loft apartment, suddenly you'll feel like you've been transported to SOHO. Complete with 15 foot ceilings and spiral staircase. This space alone will make you fall in love with the house!

This house has a lot of history and is a neighborhood landmark. Built by Captain W. Hemmingway, it still has the original wood floors with gorgeous inlays, carved marble fireplace, and another large carved wooden fire place, and a gorgeous carved/built in mirror.

You can very easily convert this house back into a one family with little or no cost, or live here almost mortgage free with tenants. Don't forget, you can even use the current rental income as part of your income when applying for a mortgage. this is a GREAT investment!!

If you put 20% down (based on asking price) and with the rental income, your mortgage payments to live here would be under $300. How can you resist?

Close to I91 and I95 as well as Yale and Quinnipiac Universities.

Some pictures of the upstairs bedrooms.

Currently this room is being used as the Master Bedroom. There is plenty of room and beautiful natural light. Two closets provide plenty of storage for all your clothes. And another smaller closet is great for linens.

This is part of the second room upstairs. It's a great size bedroom. To give you an idea of how nice and spacious this room is, there are currently 3 kids sharing this room.

Waterfront Condos

Across the street are several beautiful condos that are overlooking the Quinnipiac River. There are also some incomplete condos that have been sitting there for a few years, along with an empty lot. The time is almost here, where they will be built to completion. We've corresponded with the builders on several occasions. And they are very close to getting the 'thumbs up' to begin working. They actually have recently put a new roof on the existing building. Which always indicates a good sign.

The builder/owner actually gave us a copy of what they are going to look like. So we thought we'd share them with you.

Just think. You can own a beautiful home that will most likely be in high demand once these condos are complete and reconfirm how wonderful this neighborhood is!

3rd Floor Loft Apartment




This is a GREAT space! We've never had a problem renting this out, and we've had the best luck with tenants! They've ALL been great!! We currently get $1,200 a month in rent for this apartment. It has a bedroom and a loft space above the bedroom, which can be reached by the great spiral staircase that you can see in the pictures.

It is a HUGE space. As close to NYC living as you can probably get in New Haven! We actually lived in this apartment for 12 years. And one of the best features, probably in this economy, is the fact that there is a wood stove!!
