North Vernon
Homes for families, seniors and boaters
Streets in North Vernon tend to be quiet, shady and unaccompanied by sidewalks. Many homes were built between the 1950s and '80s. Three-bedroom Colonial Revival, Cape Cod and raised ranch-style homes start at around $300,000, though older homes in need of a little care can go for under $200,000. Nearer to Rockville, townhouses going for around $170,000 can be found. The neighborhood also has two mobile home parks: High Manor and Vernon Village, the latter being a 55-plus community. Waterfront Cape Cod homes by Middle and Lower Bottom Lake under 800 square feet can go for $300,000 or lower, but for more space, homebuyers can expect to pay at least $500,000 for a two-story Colonial Revival.Academics and agricultural education
Students can start off attending Center Road School before moving up to Vernon Center Middle School. Both schools are centrally located in North Vernon, less than two miles away from most homes. Center Road and Vernon Center Middle School have received B and B-minus ratings from Niche. Rockville High School is just up the road and has earned a B rating. Through the school’s Agricultural Science and Technology program, students follow educational pathways from aquaculture to agricultural mechanics and develop and enact an agricultural experiential program outside of class.Voyaging around Vernon (and the Northeast)
CTtransit bus route 84 services Vernon and carries passengers to and from Hartford, passing through Manchester. The bus does not operate during weekends. Residents may find they prefer driving. Interstate 84 slices Vernon in two and connects the town to larger cities like Boston and New York City. The drive to Boston is 90 miles or about an hour and a half, while New York City, 130 miles away, can be reached in 2 hours on a good day.Eating out and shopping in Vernon and Rockville
Many restaurants and stores in Vernon can be found along the Hartford Turnpike and Talcottville Road. Residents can stock up on home goods at ShopRite or Stop & Shop and then swing by Rein’s Deli to try their homemade pickles and many sandwiches. Alternatively, other shopping and dining options can be found in Rockville. Residents can order hearty soul food at Craig’s Kitchen or visit La Brioche bakery for French pastries and other treats. Kevin’s Coffee Roasters is a popular spot for locals who crave a wide selection of hand roasted coffee. Flavors include blueberry cinnamon crumb cake and Vermont maple walnut.Outdoor and indoor fun
Valley Falls Park is a widely popular green space, referred to by locals as “Vernon’s jewel.” Visitors can follow the park’s 9 miles of trails to scenic waterfalls, vistas, a beach, picnic areas and the remnants of a 19th century cotton mill. Athletes head to Henry Park to enjoy the park’s many amenities such as a basketball court, volleyball court, baseball field, tennis courts and more. Fox Hill Tower is the centerpiece to the park, a memorial to the veterans of Vernon and Rockville. “When you’re up in the tower, you can overlook Vernon and Rockville,” Fish says. For indoor fun, locals like to visit Ron-A-Roll, one of a handful of remaining roller-skating rinks in Connecticut.Cars and crafts
Motorheads will love the annual KIDSAFE Car Show, which draws in classic cars, trucks and more. All proceeds go to KIDSAFE CT, a non-profit organization which aims to prevent and treat child abuse and neglect. In November of 2023, an annual crafts fair takes place where local artisans and vendors showcase their creations, from soaps to home décor to holiday gifts.
