About This Home
Set on 1.49 private acres in Ellington's scenic Job's Hill area, this home brings together what buyers rarely find in one address: in-ground pool, room to entertain, & highly rated school system, all wrapped into a classic New England Colonial ready for its new homeowner! Freshly painted throughout, the home's 1,948 square feet are laid out for everyday comfort and easy entertaining. A welcoming front porch made to relax and rock while the winds whistle by. Three bedrooms, two full baths and office nook are located on 2nd story. First floor hosts 4th bedroom/den and a half bath. Living room is anchored by a fireplace with wood stove insert for warm quiet winter evenings. A main-floor laundry sits conveniently beside the attached two-car garage, a generator, and a 996-square-foot basement are ready to become a home gym, playroom, or workshop. The real draw is outside. The backyard pool & patio are framed by open lawn & mature trees & shed creating a private retreat with space left over for gardens, a play set, or simply watching the light fade over the fields. Ellington's rural character means quiet roads & nearby farm stands, while Hartford, Bradley International Airport, and I-84 and I-91 remain an easy drive. Ellington Public Schools earn an A-minus from Niche. Add a brand-new timeless gable-roof Colonial silhouette, and you have a home that captivates the discerning homebuyer. If your search has been for a pool, acreage, and strong schools in one property, this is the one!
