About This Home

As of September 2024

This elegant brick and clapboard West End style home has been updated to perfection with the original character left intact. This sophisticated home is within walking distance to Whiting Lane and West Hartford Center (only 3/4 mile). This property has an incredible flow, perfect for everyday living and entertaining! Freshly painted, newer windows, new front door, new portico, professionally landscaped with a granite cobblestone walkway. Interior is equally impressive with high ceilings, original moldings, refinished hardwood floors, a gracious entryway, updated bathrooms, front to back living room with fireplace and glass doors leading to the 3-season porch. The updated kitchen has white shaker style cabinets, granite counters, Carrara marble backsplash, Wolf stove, newer stainless appliances and a butler's pantry with a copper sink. Upstairs the master suite has much to be desired with a custom walk in closet and a full bath. The private courtyard with covered patio & gardens is a dreamy setting for your morning cup of coffee or BBQ. The finished lower level rec room offers additional sq. feet for a wonderful playroom or family room option. High efficiency boiler, two car garage, and a great location!
