All of this as well as 4 bedrooms and 2.1 bathrooms. This beautiful brick colonial is located just steps from Morley School and a short walk to Blue Back Sqaure and West Hartford Center. With over 2600 sqaure feet of living space, this home is full of period charm and character. Along with a beautiful kitchen with new cabinets, granite counters, stainless appliances and more (completed in 2018), the remainder of the first floor includes a dining room, living room with fireplace, den and 1/2 bath, all with hardwood flooring. Upstairs you will find 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Three of the bedrooms are on the second level and the fourth bedroom, along with a bonus space is on the third floor.
