About This Home

As of May 2025

This charming brick Colonial, ideally located just minutes from West Hartford Center, offers a perfect blend of classic elegance and modern functionality. The striking stone wall and driveway set the tone as you approach the home, adding instant curb appeal and a touch of sophistication. Inside, the home exudes warmth and style with beautiful millwork, spacious living areas, and abundant natural light throughout. The cheery remodeled kitchen has shaker style cabinets, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a large pantry for extra storage. Upstairs find three cozy bedrooms and a beautifully remodeled full bath with a walk-in shower, soaking tub, and dual sink vanity. The lower level of this home provides a recently finished basement (a few final details to be completed!) which adds significant square footage to the home. Recreation room, playroom, workout room, home office, you name it! The finished space also includes a separate laundry room and full bath. Step outside to the fenced in backyard with a stone patio and large deck, ideal for hosting gatherings or relaxing with family and friends. Brand new central air, newer gas heating system, and a newer roof will provide peace of mind for years! This home checks every box, all while being just moments from the vibrant shops, restaurants, and entertainment of West Hartford Center.
