The charm of the suburbs and countryside come together at Bloomfield
Bloomfield is a community for residents who want to balance suburban living with the space and greenery of the New England countryside. The farther north or west one goes from Bloomfield’s small, quaint downtown, known as Wintonbury, the more forested and spacious subdivisions become until making way for sprawling green spaces like Penwood and Talcott Mountain State Parks. Many of the neighborhood’s Colonial Revival, ranch-style and split-level houses keep some greenery for themselves, accompanied by mature trees and well-manicured lawns. House prices tend to fall between $250,000 and $550,000. The tranquility of homes’ landscapes is reflected in the values of their owners. “It's a very family-oriented town,” says Katrina Pratt, a Broker with Rainbow Realty who has sold homes in the area for over 30 years. “You have families who have lived here for generations alongside families newer to town.” But as events like the summer concerts and Celebrate Bloomfield Festival show, all are invested in making Bloomfield an inviting place to live.
A host of housing options
“Houses are selling well, and they hold their value,” Pratt says. “They’re close to restaurants, shopping, the highway and schools.” Most homes were built between the 1950s and ‘00s, but historic homes from the 18th and 19th centuries and new constructions from the 2010s and beyond also appear on the market. Mature trees keep streets shady, which often lack accompanying sidewalks. Many homes follow Colonial Revival, Cape Cod, split-level, ranch and raised ranch architectural styles and offer around three bedrooms. Some roofs make use of solar panels to reduce electricity bills. Houses aren’t packed densely together, but for even more space, homebuyers can get homes on the west and north sides which often sit on lots of an acre or more. Most houses go for between $250,000 and $550,000. There is also a variety of condo units with variable costs from $100,000 to $800,000 depending on size.
Ranches and capes are a frequent sight in Bloomfield.

Museum-based education
Pre-K through 5 students can attend the Museum Academy, a magnet school which educates kids using museum studies methodologies. Beyond participating in many excursions to museums, students get to research and create their own exhibits, turning the school into their own museum. Students might then move up to Carmen Arace Intermediate School for 6th grade and Carmen Arace Middle School for 7th and 8th before finishing up at Bloomfield High School. Museum Academy and Bloomfield High have C-plus ratings from Niche, while Carmen Arace Intermediate and Middle are rated C-minus. The University of Hartford can be found just down Bloomfield Avenue.
Bloomfield's Carmen Arace School is two schools in one, younger students attend the Intermediate School and older students attend the Middle School.
CREC Museums Academy in Bloomfield focuses on an innovative museum based learning program.

Taking the bus or the highway
Several CT Transit bus lines operate in Bloomfield, many converging at the Copaco Center at Bloomfield’s south end. Routes 50 and 56 pass through Wintonbury and take residents down to Hartford. Locals especially in the north and west will prefer driving their cars. Many residents are within a 10-minute drive of Interstate 91 and US Route 44.
Dining, socializing and shopping
Many restaurants and shops can be found right in Wintonbury. Bloomfield Village Pizza is a casual Italian eatery that offers filling pizzas and thick sub sandwiches. “Not only do they have great food, but they have great networking, so people tend to gather there,” Pratt says. “And they’ll meet there for events like class reunion too.” Elizabeth’s Bar & Restaurant is another local stomping ground, serving more upscale Italian cuisine and offering live music on select nights. For shopping, locals swing by Geissler’s Supermarket. More stores can be found down at the Copaco Shopping Center.
Bloomfield Village Pizza is conveniently located in the heart of Wintonbury.
Bloomfield residents have plenty of popular spots to meet up for coffee.

Enjoying Bloomfield’s natural beauty
Residents can unwind and relax in the outdoor spaces right downtown like the Town Green and Filley Park. Several gorgeous parks can be found just west of Bloomfield such as Hartford Reservoir 6, Talcott Mountain State Park and Penwood State Park. Together, these three parks comprise over 2,000 acres. Residents can walk around the four-mile loop surrounding the reservoir, take in panoramic views of Hartford from atop Heublein Tower and cross-country ski during the winter.
The pond at Filley Park is where many Bloomfield children learn about fishing and ice skating.
Heublein Tower sits high atop Talcott Mountain just West of Bloomfield.

Celebrating Bloomfield
Many events in Bloomfield take place at the Town Green. “They usually give concerts in the summertime,” Pratt says. Residents are welcome to pull up lawn chairs, sit back and enjoy the music. The Parks & Rec department will put on other summer events like a Celebrate Bloomfield day with food trucks, children’s activities, a farmer’s market and more.
