Description

**Back on the market after buyer's financing failed** Welcome to the c. 1875 Summit Cottage, which is listed as a contributing structure in the application for the National Register for Historic Places for the Prospect Hill Section of Willimantic. This charming home has been nicely updated and maintained, and is set back from the road with plentiful off-street parking and a wooded setting out back. Sitting less than one block from ECSU and the university library, you can walk around the landscaped campus and the Hill Section Victoria neighborhood, as well as downtown Willimantic with its dining, pubs, coffee shops and more. It's convenient to all major roads to UConn and Hartford. As you enter, you'll find a great mud room for your outerwear and shoes, and a bright and open kitchen with cathedral ceilings, exposed beams and hardwood floors. The hardwood floors flow throughout the home! The formal dining room is open to the kitchen, and a spacious living room. There is also a bedroom & renovated half bath on the main level. Upstairs you'll find 2 additional spacious bedrooms and a renovated full bath. The walk-out lower level has many windows and offers fantastic storage but could be finished to add living space or possibly bedrooms, for increased investment potential. Out back, you'll find mature trees in a private wooded setting. Updates include bathrooms, electrical, plumbing, replacement windows & the gutters and roof were replaced in 2021 with a transferable warranty.
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. This description is from May 10, 2022
