Nestled on a private lot in Hamden's highly desirable West Woods neighborhood, this beautifully maintained home offers comfort, elegance, and exceptional functionality. Recently refreshed with updated neutral paint in the foyer, dining room, and family room, the home feels bright, welcoming, and move-in ready. The heart of the home is the stunning custom kitchen, renovated with style and practicality in mind. A large granite-topped island provides extra storage, power access, pull-out recycling and garbage bins, and a dedicated pull-out platform for a KitchenAid mixer. High-end Bosch appliances include a double oven, induction cooktop, and dishwasher. French doors open to the freshly painted formal dining room, creating wonderful flow for entertaining. A breakfast nook with a large picture window overlooks the beautifully tiered gardens. Step outside to the renovated patio with bluestone steps leading to the in-ground pool, complete with a new 2025 liner and security cover-a true backyard oasis! The first floor also offers a spacious office/library that could serve as a formal living room or guest space. Upstairs, the primary suite features a large walk-in closet and renovated en-suite bath with a heated soaking tub, oversized glass shower, and marble focal wall. Three additional bedrooms offer generous closets with built-in shelving. A second-floor office leads to the third-floor bedroom and bonus living space, plus a walk-in attic.
