Wonderful opportunity to snag a home in a prime university area neighborhood! This home boasts a good amount of living space, including 996 on the main floor alone and features hardwood flooring on the main level under the carpet, replacement windows throughout, 700+ SF in the unfinished basement that can easily be made into living space and gas heat. The large living room has a wood burning fireplace and a gas line is run to easily add a gas insert if desired. Situated above the street behind a stone wall, the flat yard offers nice privacy. There are currently 4 bedrooms (2 up, 2 down) and 2 full bathrooms (1 up, 1 down). Imagine turning the 4th bedroom located off the kitchen into a beautiful dining room (it is currently used as a den)! The exterior features a covered back porch, 2 car detached garage, and recently re-sealed driveway. This home is in need of aesthetic interior updates, but everything works and is fully operational! The heating and electrical panel has been updated a few years ago. The wood siding is in perfect condition - adding a new paint color will go a long way. Wilton Road has an annual block party and residents walk to Holland Hill Elementary which recently had a $20M renovation, including a great playground! Right between I95 and the Merritt for easy commuting; 5 minutes from Fairfield Metro Train Station; just off Black Rock Turnpike; 10 minutes to downtown amenities; and 12 minutes to Fairfield beaches!
This is an estate sale. The garage doors/openers, appliances and retaining wall are being sold as-is. One window has a broken seal and one window in the garage has been broken (not a safety concern) those are also sold as-is. This home needs TLC and it is an estate sale - please make buyers aware of this. Only safety / structural / hazardous issues to be negotiated post-inspection. There is SO MUCH potential - this location is perfect!
