About this House

Wonderful opportunity to bring new life to this one-owner home in a centrally located neighborhood off of Cook Hill with sidewalks and convenient access to schools and commuting routes. This home offers great bones and tremendous potential for the buyer looking to make cosmetic updates and build equity. The main level offers 1,220 square feet of living space with a functional layout for everyday living and entertaining, including the living room, dining room, and kitchen. There are also three generously sized bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with a full bath. The lower level previously included a rec room with an additional 480 square feet of living space. Although that area was affected by a hot water heater flood, it offers an easy opportunity to recreate a family room, playroom, or flexible living space. There is also room to add a half bath in the lower level if desired. A large 2-car garage, newer oil tank, and brand-new hot water heater add to the home's value. This is a diamond in the rough and a wonderful chance to invest in a home with great upside. Home is being sold in "as-is" condition.

    "Wallingford is a very nice Connecticut suburban town. It has the charm of a great New England community with easy access to major metropolitan areas (about 90 minutes outside of NYC); the town offers great access to two interstates and a commuter rail line. Great public and private schools with a wide array of amenities all make Wallingford an attractive place to live and raise a family. The real estate is well priced with a wide variety of small, medium, and large to estate-sized homes. The mill rate is low relative to most of Connecticut and the town has its own electric company. The East Side of town is more developed with many beautiful estates that overlook the vineyards and countryside offering beautiful, breathtaking views of the terrain and sunrises/sunsets. The crime rate is low and the town boasts many outdoor spaces that are well maintained."
