Rare opportunity to own a mid-century split-level condo in Hamden! There are only eighteen split-level townhouses in North Lake. Lovingly known as "New England Row Houses" or "Garden-Type Apartments", these condos were built in 1957 by Pedersen & Tilney, Architects. The brilliance of the architecture allows for the concept of bringing nature indoors to flourish. There is a wall of windows in the living room and dining room with tranquil views looking onto a pond. The upstairs includes a spacious primary bedroom and second bedroom, both with water views. Hardwood floors freshly refinished and windows have been replaced with updated thermopanes. The basement is finished with an additional full bathroom. There is also a space that was once used as a dark room. Exterior features include a carport, in-ground pool, and an attached patio space. Thoughtfully tucked away into the woods, yet you are 10 minutes from downtown New Haven, Yale, and just a short walk to shops in Whitneyville and Spring Glen. Bird watchers paradise! North Lake was featured in the Brussels World’s Fair in 1958 as one of the best examples of apartment building architecture in New England as well as Architectural Record (1959), and Architectural Forum (1961).
