    What's special

    Chic Wooster Sq Condo where elegance meets modern convenience! Welcome to this stunning 2-bed, 2-bath condo in the heart of Wooster Square, directly overlooking the park. Originally built in 1857 as the Edward Rowland House, this historic gem is a boutique 6-unit condo building-quiet, well-managed, and full of character. This 1st fl unit impresses with soaring 11' ceilings, oversized 8' windows, and gleaming refinished hardwood floors. The open-concept layout blends living and dining spaces effortlessly, perfect for both relaxing and entertaining. French doors lead to a classic-meets-modern kitchen featuring light wood cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances (dishwasher 2023, gas range 2025), and a slate tile backsplash. Every inch is thoughtfully designed, including a custom hallway with built-in bookcases and storage. The primary suite stuns with a bowed window, original woodwork, a walk-in closet with built-ins, and a sleek en-suite bath with a custom tile shower and upscale finishes. The second bedroom features a built-in Murphy bed, marble flooring, custom shelving, and direct access to a shared deck. A 2nd full bath with marble floors adds style and function. Bonus perks include in-unit laundry, central A/C, basement storage, a newer gas furnace, and a charming shared garden patio-your own hidden oasis. Steps from Wooster Square Park, iconic pizza spots, coffee shops, Downtown New Haven, Yale, and train stations. Eligible for Yale homebuyer program! NEW PHOTOS COMING SOON!
