About this House

MULTIPLE OFFERS RECEIVED. HIGHEST AND BEST DUE END OF DAY MONDAY 8/31/2026. Two-Family Opportunity in South Meriden with a Yard You'll Love If you've been looking for a two-family home that offers both investment potential and a place to call your own, this one deserves a look. Set in popular South Meriden, this spacious property offers three bedrooms and one full bath on each of the first and second floors, with separate utilities for each unit except water and sewer. The town records the home as an 8-bedroom property because two finished attic rooms are counted as bedrooms, giving you even more flexibility for storage, hobbies, office space, or future possibilities. For an owner-occupant, the setup is especially appealing: live in one unit and rent the other to help offset your mortgage. Investors will appreciate the two-unit configuration, natural gas heat and hot water, and central air on the first floor. But the real surprise may be the backyard. Fully fenced and surprisingly spacious, it feels like its own little retreat, complete with a gazebo, barn-style shed, attached lean-to, and even an herb garden. The gazebo, shed, and gate were thoughtfully built by the father of the family, adding a personal touch you simply don't find in every home. Picture summer dinners under the gazebo, gardening in the sunshine, or letting the kids and pets enjoy the fenced-in yard. The location makes everyday life easy, too. You're close to Cheshire and Wallingford, with plenty of shopping, dining, and conveniences nearby. Outdoor enthusiasts have Hanover Pond and the Quinnipiac River Linear Trail close at hand, while Hubbard Park is another favorite destination. And when you're craving a local classic, don't leave town without trying Ted's famous steamed cheeseburger! Commuters will love the easy access to Route 15 and I-691, putting Hartford, New Haven, and major employment centers within easy reach. Prefer to leave the car at home? The Meriden Amtrak and CT Rail station offers convenient train service to Hartford, New Haven, and beyond. Whether you're ready to start building your investment portfolio or looking for a home where someone else helps with the mortgage, this South Meriden two-family offers space, flexibility, and a backyard with a story of its own. Come see what makes it special.
