Deep procrastinating right now and did a bit of digging. Per this Connecticut Evening Post Annual from 1885, Charles L. Mitchell, the son of Edward A. Mitchell, lived at an estate called "Fernhurst," which had been in his family for three generations. Googling the name of the estate on Google came up with this stereograph from the NYPL, which looks to be taken from the lawn of the same building. You can see the right side of the photograph matches up with what's in the stereograph.
That's as far as I think it can be taken without the help of the New Haven Museum as other commenters have stated. Still doesn't answer where in New Haven this is, but there's some more info for you if you're looking to dig further.

Reply to History - looking for this house that’s in my family book. Or any history on it since slim chances it’s still around. Tried numerous searches so I figured I would try Reddit. All suggestions welcome. by saturnmarsjupiter
