About 980 Mount Carmel Ave
Welcome home to 980 Mount Carmel Avenue! Nestled at the foot of Sleeping Giant on 3.66 acres and set well back from the road, this home is a wonderful private retreat and yet is just minutes from local restaurants, shopping, highways for commuters and easy access to New Haven. This expanded cape has been very well maintained and reflects pride of ownership that is hard to beat. It features a lovely entry foyer, a front to back living room with a great fireplace and hardwood under the carpets plus a dining room that is perfect for any size dinners. Quartz counters and custom cabinets (including a pantry) are featured in the spacious kitchen that was updated ten years ago. A fabulous four season sunroom with plenty of windows lets in the natural light and provides beautiful views of the back woods and access to the deck. A bedroom, a den/office with fireplace and custom built-ins, and an updated full bath are in a separate wing offering the possibility for an in-law. A half bath completes the main level. Two generous sized bedrooms, an updated full bath and walk in attic space are all on the upper level. The large unfinished basement offers the opportunity to create additional living space.
