Built in 1901 by S.G. Taylor in New York, the "John Slade Ely House" was built as a residence for John Slade, a physician and professor in theory and practice of medicine at Yale. The 6,651 SQ FT Tudor style building is at the gateway between East Rock and Downtown on Trumbull Street. Its historical origins remain intact with the grand staircase, elaborate fireplaces, leaded glass windows, arched doorways, coffered ceilings and detailed woodwork. Spread across three levels, with an additional 2,672 sq ft in the unfinished basement, the possibilities are endless. New Haven City Plan recently approved a conversion into ten apartments. The property would also be perfect for a conversion back to a primary residence, a live/work space, or non-profit use. The building has oil heat, a brand new roof, a handicap ramp, and a large backyard. This is a landmark property that will not last long!
