The Dr. Thomas Goodsell House, a post and beam true Colonial dating from 1760, is now known as the Elmcroft Estate with the addition of the architecturally significant 1890 Carriage House containing a legal apartment and extensive loft is set on almost five wooded acres with a circular driveway. This home is a fine example of a typical pre-revolutionary, center chimney Colonial with hand-hewn beams in the 32-foot-long great room with an 8-foot wide fireplace with a crane. Formal living and dining rooms feature fireplaces. Completing the first floor is the kitchen, laundry area and full bath. The second floor contains 4 bedrooms and a bath accessed by both formal front stairs and rear stairs. Walk-up attic with considerable storage completes this unique home. The 5 room, 1 bath second apartment in the carriage house is ideal for a tenant or extended family. Rental net income is in the range of $15,000 per year, the equivalent of a $250,000 annuity. The carriage house with its walk-out basement is comprised of a large, high-bay, raised garage suitable for up to 5 vehicles, a 2 stall stable and a single car garage. The 2,700 square-foot, unfinished loft is open to the imagination for a variety of uses. The grounds hold many additional possibilities for horses and farming. Conveniently located near shopping, schools and the Merritt Parkway, this property is only minutes to downtown New Haven and to trains for NYC commuting. Preapproved buyers only.
