Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Shelley

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.
