Welcome to this beautifully maintained custom-built home completed in 2024, located in one of Hamden's most desirable neighborhoods. Set on a spacious and private lot, this almost-new home offers the perfect blend of modern comfort, functionality, and timeless design. Filled with natural light, the inviting layout features generously sized bedrooms, stylish bathrooms, and expansive living spaces ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The stunning modern kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, creating the perfect gathering space for family and friends. Large windows throughout enhance the bright and airy feel of the home. Additional highlights include contemporary finishes, energy-efficient systems, underground electrical service for enhanced reliability and a cleaner exterior appearance, a dual-insulation system featuring fiberglass and spray foam insulation for enhanced comfort and efficiency, ample storage, and an attached garage - all the benefits of new construction without the wait. Built with thoughtful long-term quality in mind, the home also features a protected sleeved water line system designed to provide added insulation, durability, and easier future maintenance accessibility if ever needed. The basement was also designed with a built-in drain system for convenient cleanup and added peace of mind. The septic system features an additional pump/dosing tank that assists with efficient distribution to the leaching fields - a valuable feature often found in higher-end or engineered systems. A standout feature is the elegant foyer chandelier equipped with an automatic lift system, allowing it to be lowered and raised with the touch of a button for easy cleaning and maintenance. Enjoy the peaceful backyard setting with plenty of space to relax or entertain, while being conveniently located near parks, shopping, restaurants, major highways, and Quinnipiac University. A rare opportunity to own a move-in ready custom home in the sought-after Mount Carmel/Sleeping Giant area.
