Description

If you are looking for a meticulously maintained house then this is your new home. No detail has been overlooked. Come home to you exquisitely landscaped yard, with a quaint patio and above ground pool quintessential for entertaining on those summer nights. This spacious home sits on 1.2 acres of luscious lawn where you can sip on some wine while admiring the colorful sunsets. During the 4th of July invite your friends and family over to relax on the lawn while watching the local fireworks. Capacious kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops. Hardwood flooring throughout lends itself to easy cleaning. Two generously sized bedrooms on the first floor make this an ideal home for guests staying over or a potential in-law setup with updated bathroom across the hall. After a long day of work fill the jetted tub upstairs and settle in for the evening or open a book and read by the fireplace in the living room. Nothing to do but move in. Everything has been done for you; newer mechanicals, roof, AZEK siding, updated bathrooms and kitchen.

    "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."
