Mid-century masterwork by famed architect Serge Chermayeff. Designed and built as his home during his time as a professor at the Yale School of Architecture, this one-of-a-kind property was lovingly and respectfully renovated by its current owners in 2011. The renovation honors Chermayeff's aesthetic vision while updating the home for 21st century energy efficiency and environmental considerations with a deep energy retrofit. Nestled on a quiet street close to downtown New Haven, the home perfectly integrates indoor and outdoor spaces, offering private retreats and open public spaces. The welcoming entry foyer opens to a generous Living Room-Dining Room with soaring ceilings, built-ins, skylight, and sliders to private courtyards. The expanded, remodeled Eat-in-Kitchen has a breakfast bar, quartz countertops, and Miele appliances including an induction cooktop. The Primary Bedroom offers an en suite Full Bathroom, built-ins, office area, and sliders to a private garden. A second Bedroom Suite, plus additional Bedroom and Full Bathroom complete the main level. Outside, an oasis in the middle of New Haven awaits with native gardens, courtyards, custom red cedar fencing, storage shed, and irrigation system. Amenities include: 5-zone heating and cooling, new tankless hot water heater, 200 amp electrical, triple glazed windows, sliders and skylights, radiant heating in bathrooms.
