Description

475 Whitney Avenue presents a rare opportunity to restore & reposition one of New Haven's most architecturally significant properties into a signature residential asset. The building has been used by a prominent law firm since 1971. Originally constructed as a grand private residence in 1896, the building is ideally suited for conversion back to a luxury single-family estate or redevelopment from the current office configuration as a boutique multi-family or condominium offering. The structure's scale, craftsmanship & layout-featuring expansive rooms, high ceilings & formal entertaining spaces-lend themselves naturally to residential reuse. The architectural details including the yellow venetian brick & copper gutters & flashing make this prohibitively expensive to replicate today. In addition to the main residence the property includes a detached rear structure (originally a garage later converted to conference space) that can possibly be repositioned into 1 or 2 addtl residential units, guest accommodations or accessory dwelling space creating meaningful added value & flexibility. The current site configuration includes a large, paved parking area, which offers a unique opportunity to reclaim a portion of the grounds for landscaped lawns, private outdoor space & a formal residential driveway, restoring the property's original estate-like setting while maintaining functional access. 475 Whitney is widely regarded as one of the most distinctive residences along Whitney Ave., Building is equipped with an elevator.
