915 Tuttle Ave, Hamden, CT 06518

A home rich in history and charm…Step back in time and experience the solitude of 3-acres of parklike grounds at 915 Tuttle Ave. This home has many charming characteristics available for the eye to see, but if you love historical homes, you also appreciate the stories that live between the walls. The current owner spent many memorable years visiting and helping his beloved uncle with his CT homestead. In 1975, his uncle, a finance professor at Quinnipiac University purchased his 3-acre getaway behind Sleeping Giant, and lovingly restored the home and the barn to what you see today. And the current owner has maintained the house and grounds and is ready to pass on this unique property to a new owner. Pavers guide you into this private retreat and into the garage bay. The barn is an amazing mix of old and new timbers, complete with a loft area and a wood stove that make a perfect retreat! The main home is very livable and has relaxing views onto the partially wooded parcel. The family room is a newer section of the home, with higher ceilings, a pellet stove, and a large southern facing window. Some areas of the main house have ceiling heights of 6’2”. The house was fully insulated and re-sided in 2000 and has a generator. The downstairs is heated with oil, forced air heat with a separate oil-fired hot water heater. The downstairs also has central air and the house is on Wallingford Electric.
