About This Home

As of August 2021

This gracious home exudes charm from its enchanting curb appeal to every detail of the distinctive interior. The story-book entry courtyard leads to a home built with impeccable craftsmanship. Tasteful millwork, built-ins, molding, window seats, French doors and arches are found throughout. This inviting home combines elegance, warmth and comfort. Renovated kitchen boasts top-of-the-line appliances, large carrara marble island, ample cabinetry, bookshelves and built ins. The butlers pantry, between the kitchen and generously-sized dining room, provides additional glass cabinetry, counter space, large copper sink and wine refrigerator. The elegant living room is divided by triple arches from the "music room." A cozy den with fireplace and book shelves and a bright, airy sunroom both serve as peaceful retreats. Laundry is located right off of the kitchen for convenience. Upstairs there are five bedrooms. The large master has bookshelves in an arched alcove and a walk in closet/dressing room with built ins. The renovated marble master bathroom has more custom cabinetry. Four additional bedrooms share two Jack and Jill bathrooms. The carpeted basement family room with fireplace has ample space for comfortable seating and games. The recently-added hardwood deck (off kitchen) and rebuilt patio overlook a private, level backyard. Situated on one of the most desirable streets in the highly sought-after Hartford Golf Club neighborhood. This home is a must-see!
