What This Apartment Offers
Make yourself at home in one of New Haven's most desirable neighborhoods. This freshly painted two-bedroom, one-bath apartment is tucked into the heart of East... Rock, where tree-lined sidewalks, neighborhood cafés, and the eclectic shops and restaurants along State Street give everyday life a walkable, village-like quality you won't find anywhere else in the city.
The layout features a generous primary bedroom alongside a second bedroom that works beautifully as a home office, guest room, or cozy sleeping space — ideal for anyone who wants flexible square footage without paying for more than they need. The living area is bright and spacious, with plenty of natural light pouring in, and the efficient kitchen has everything you need. Two overhead ceiling fans keep the air moving year-round, and washer and dryer are right in the building.
Dog owners, take note — two great dog parks are just a short walk away, with plenty of room for off-leash play. East Rock Park is practically in your backyard, offering trails, greenery, and sweeping views of the Long Island Sound whenever you need to recharge.
The location speaks for itself: walk to Yale School of Management, the main Yale campus, or catch the Orange Route shuttle just minutes away. Mactivity, East Rock's popular full-service gym, local markets, and some of New Haven's best restaurants are all within easy reach on foot.
Hot water is included in rent. Off-street parking is available for a separate fee, subject to availability. Owned and managed by a Yale Law School graduate who lives locally and takes pride in maintaining a well-kept property.
