Library District, located between Main Street and the Naugatuck River, is a walkable and civic-minded Ansonia neighborhood with a historic library campus and compact downtown blocks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Main Street corridor near the Ansonia Public Library, where storefronts, small eateries, and everyday services set a steady, street-level rhythm. The Ansonia Public Library anchors the district’s brick-and-stone streetscape, while the Ansonia Opera House adds a cultural marquee to the evening scene. The Ansonia Nature Center brings a wooded counterpoint to the built core. Architecture leans toward late-19th- and early-20th-century commercial facades and older residential side streets. River-adjacent geography and civic landmarks keep the atmosphere grounded and local.

Spacious duplex style 2 family home sits pretty on a corner lot. Great multi family neighborhood. Natural gas heat, Some attic rooms for (# 96) 3rd level accessed thru 2nd bedroom, could be added bedrooms for that side of duplex (not included in square footage) .Older driveway location in left front, easy parking in front or on side street.
Good entry level 2 family duplex, rent out one side while living in the other. Make your improvements, get a strong rent for it and move into the other side. Then improve that one for good rent income. Create a good investment property and sell it, keep it, or live in one side (have tenant help pay down the mortgage). Perfect for someone with trade skills and contacts. Solid bones, will need modernization.
