Sweet deal!
This listing is 36% below the median price for 2 bedroom apartments in Downtown New Haven.

If you want a two-bedroom that actually lives like a home, this is it. This generously proportioned apartment at 56 Hillside delivers the kind of shared living space most two-bedrooms can only pretend to offer — a huge kitchen, a full dining area, and a large, bright living room that together create a main living zone you'll never feel squeezed in. The kitchen is genuinely big — fully equipped with a dishwasher, built-in microwave, oven, and a separate dishwashing area that adds a level of everyday convenience you'll quickly take for granted. It flows naturally into the dining nook and expansive living area, making the entire footprint feel open, airy, and connected. Beautiful hardwood floors run throughout the apartment, tying everything together with warmth and character. Both bedrooms are comfortable and well-proportioned, and the large, bright living room gives the whole apartment a sense of scale that most two-bedrooms in this market simply don't have. Laundry is available in the basement. The Science Hill neighborhood is one of New Haven's best-kept secrets — quiet and residential with a true community feel, yet remarkably well connected. You're just a block from Yale's newest residential colleges, steps from beautiful parks, and right on the Yale shuttle route for easy access to campus and downtown. Long a favorite among Yale graduate students and affiliates, this address is open to everyone — and the neighborhood sells itself. Two bedrooms, huge common spaces, and one of the best quiet locations near Yale. This one won't last. Parking available for an additional fee, subject to availability. Highlights: • Oversized kitchen, dining, and living area • Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, built-in microwave & oven • Separate dishwashing area • Beautiful hardwood floors throughout • Large, bright living room and common space • Laundry in basement • One block from Yale's new residential colleges • Steps to beautiful parks and the Yale shuttle • Science Hill neighborhood — quiet, connected & walkable • Popular with Yale grad students and affiliates — open to all • Parking available (separate fee, subject to availability)
