About This Home
Back on Market! Buyer did not obtain financing. Step into the character and scale of an 1865 Colonial with the benefit of extensive renovation completed in 2024. 12 Columbus Avenue offers 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and 1,776 square feet of living space, with the classic proportions and feel of an older home and renewed living areas. The main and second levels were completely renovated in 2024 following a fire that was contained to the attic. Today, the home offers an opportunity to enjoy the character of a historic Colonial while benefiting from the renovation work completed to its primary living spaces. This location offers convenient access to Meriden's parks, trails, and community amenities, including Hubbard Park and its extensive hiking trails, Castle Craig and its scenic views, the Meriden Green, and the city's Linear Trail system. The Meriden Public Library, downtown amenities, and State Street train station are also nearby. With room to live, work, and gather, 12 Columbus Avenue offers a chance to make a piece of Meriden history your own.
