Description

This beautifully remodeled 3 bed/1 bath Colonial is just waiting for you to call it home! This rare gem of a home features gleaming hardwood floors, an abundance of natural light throughout, LED lighting, a spacious kitchen with new luxury vinyl flooring, and has been freshly painted with a neutral color pallet. The second floor consists of three bedrooms and a tastefully updated bathroom. You'll be impressed with all the available storage space here --the whole third floor is the walk-up attic space. The basement offers more storage and an opportunity for the new owner to finish it. Also, a brand new waterproofing system has been installed and the best part is that the lifetime warranty is transferable to the new owner! Other great features of this home include a peaceful front porch to relax on, replacement windows, vinyl siding, and a newer roof. The location is ideal as it is located in a quiet neighborhood and is in close proximity to Walnut Hill & Martha Hart Parks, the Hospital of Central Connecticut and only seconds from major highways, shopping and dining areas.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

City Hall is very helpful as far as navigating if this would be your first time coming, but overall, it’s a great place to live.

    "Don’t let your kids go out alone unsupervised. Make sure that they become very familiar with their surroundings. People drive like maniacs in New Britain, worse than Mass drivers. Also pedestrians think they have the right of way and often just walk out into traffic. Make sure your kids know how to cross the streets (crosswalks) they will live longer. "
