Storybook Dutch Colonial just a minute's drive from downtown Simsbury, with the Drake Hill Flower Bridge, Iron Horse Boulevard, and Talcott Mountain all close by. Few homes put you this close to town while still feeling like a private retreat. Remodeled in 2017, the home pairs period charm with modern finishes. A marble-tiled foyer welcomes you in. The updated kitchen features marble countertops. All three bathrooms have been remodeled with handcrafted wooden vanities, and the primary bath is a standout, finished in marble tile throughout with heated floors. The outdoor living is the real showpiece. Step out from the spacious dining area onto a wraparound deck overlooking a 2,000+ square foot patio. It has a fireplace, crescent-shaped seating, and a full outdoor kitchen and bar, ready for summer gatherings and fall evenings by the fire. The yard has been professionally leveled and fully fenced for privacy, and it works well for dogs. The big-ticket items are already done: a recently replaced roof, gutters, and septic tank. Just move in and enjoy everything Simsbury has to offer.
East Weatogue, located between the Farmington River corridor and the Simsbury town center, is a residential and river-adjacent Weatogue neighborhood with wooded hillsides and winding back roads. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Route 185 and Route 10/202 junction, where traffic funnels past small plazas and everyday errands set the pace. Architecture leans toward classic New England colonials and mid-century splits, with larger lots and stone walls framing the streetscape. The Farmington River and nearby trailheads shape a routine built around paddling, walking, and seasonal foliage. Community touchstones include the Simsbury Meadows Performing Arts Center, the Simsbury Historical Society, and Rosedale Farms & Vineyards.
