The place was lovely, well accoutred, and tastefully decorated. We particularly appreciated the furnishing of crib, high chair, and pac'n play for our toddler. The gym downstairs was a great addition. Also we appreciated the shoveling of the driveway as it snowed the day we were leaving.

About the host

Hosted by Shelley

Host profile image
We are a husband-wife team, local to New Haven, CT. We love this city and have devoted our lives to restoring houses and creating beautiful spaces for both guests and city residents to enjoy. Outside of our business, we enjoy spending time with our children, biking around the city, gardening, visiting with family and friends, and traveling.

Why they chose this property

Our home is located in the historic Prospect Hill section of New Haven. This neighborhood is home to perhaps the finest architecture in the entire city - a collection of large mansions from the mid to late 19th and early 20th century. These homes once belonged to wealthy industrialists, Connecticut governors, elite educators, and business luminaries. Many of these properties have been wonderfully restored in the past few decades and the area now offers terrific opportunities for architecture fans and history buffs.
