About This Home

As of October 2017

One year home warranty with sale. Go to www.20commonwealth.com for full description. The basics: lots of renovations done in the last 3 years. New kitchen with 39" cabinets, butcher block counters and all stainless steel appliances. New bathroom, new windows, natural wood trim and baseboard fully stripped down, by hand, throughout the entire house. New hot water heater, new inducer wheel and motor in furnace. Hardwood floors redone, bathroom tiled. New front porch. Audio and video wiring installed, ADT security system installed, with cellular connection. On bus line, 1 mile from CCSU, half mile from Stanley Quarter. 3.5 miles to UCONN Health, 8.5 miles to Blue Back. Drive to downtown Hartford in 15 minutes. It's a great house in arguably the most convenient location in greater Hartford. It needs final touches from a new owner. It's a perfect blank slate, with all of the hard work done.
Owner is agent.
