About This Home
Perfectly situated within walking distance of West Hartford Center and Blue Back Square, this center hall Colonial offers 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, plus an additional 304 sq ft of attic space and 290 sq ft in the lower level, both of which offer potential to be heated for expanded living and added value. The beautifully updated kitchen opens seamlessly to a light-filled dining room featuring a classic built-in hutch, creating a perfect space for gatherings and entertaining. An oversized living room/family room is the heart of the home, complete with a gas fireplace, charming bookcases, and an abundance of windows that fill the space with warm natural light. Hardwood floors extend throughout the first floor, with new carpeting on the stairs and second level. The primary suite offers a private retreat with an expansive shower, skylight, and in-suite washer and dryer. The attic is ideal for a home office, playroom, or flexible living space. The lower level provides additional room for recreation, fitness, or storage. Step outside to an expansive composite deck overlooking an above-ground pool, perfect for summer enjoyment, along with a nicely sized yard and a large rear shed. Updated mechanicals include a high-efficiency combo gas boiler/HWH (2025) and a ductless AC system (2024). Enjoy morning coffee on the deck, summer days by the pool, and evenings out just minutes from home, with dining, shopping, coffee shops, fitness studios, and year-round events all nearby.
