Welcome to this meticulously maintained Colonial, where timeless charm, exceptional space, and an unbeatable location come together in one of the area's most desirable neighborhoods along the Metacomet Trail, offering over 3,700 square feet of living space. Situated on a nearly 2-acre lot, the property features 6 beds, 4.1 baths, a 2-car garage, a partially finished basement, hardwood floors throughout, and numerous major improvements. Originally built as a traditional Colonial, the home was enhanced with a first-floor addition that now serves as a spacious family room featuring a cathedral-style wood ceiling, a brick fireplace with a wood-burning insert, abundant closet space, access to a private deck, a full bathroom, and a laundry room. This addition was originally designed as a first-floor bedroom; it could also serve as an in-law suite, guest suite, or main-level primary bedroom. The first-floor layout features a spacious living room with a fireplace, a formal dining room, and a private den, currently used as a home office, providing a quiet space for working, reading, or relaxing. The kitchen features hardwood flooring, granite countertops, new stainless-steel appliances, access to another deck, and a fireplace that adds unique character. The second floor comprises five bedrooms and three full bathrooms, with hardwood flooring throughout. The spacious primary suite offers lots of natural light, multiple closets, beautiful hardwood floors, and a renovated full bathroom.
Another bedroom, accessed via a separate staircase and adjacent to a full bathroom, is ideal for use as a private guest suite. The remaining three bedrooms are generously sized. The partially finished basement provides additional living and recreation space, with a fireplace, a pool table, ample storage, and endless possibilities for future use. Outside, enjoy the two decks and a stone patio overlooking the backyard. A large outdoor storage/studio with heat (currently disconnected) could be suitable for various workshops. The current owners have made significant investments in the property; the complete list of improvements is available in the attachments. Major updates include a new septic system (2024), a new roof on the original house (2025), a recently painted exterior, new stainless-steel appliances, and a new 85-gallon well tank and pressure sensor (2026). This property is ideally located near UConn Health, West Hartford Center, shopping, dining, parks, golf courses, and major commuting routes. This one-of-a-kind property also offers direct access to the West Hartford Reservoir via the Metacomet Trail, providing a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and everyday convenience.
