83 Foxcroft Rd, West Hartford, CT 06119

Once you move into this stunning house you’ll want to hold onto it. 83 Foxcroft has only had 3 owners! Originally built by the Gampel Family (for which UCONN’s Gampel Pavilion is named) The iron work around the back patio is original from Mr. Gampel’s iron works company in Hartford. The chandeliers in the dining room and front entry way are also original to the house. With those exceptions, every other room, nook and cranny of this brick colonial has been lovingly updated. The downstairs light switches and outlets may look vintage, but they are modern reproductions. The kitchens and both full baths have been completely gutted and renovated. In the kitchen you will find a six-burner chef’s stove with industrial vent and even heat lamps and shelf to keep your food hot while cooking! Add to that a wood block center island that accommodates 3 stools. The large front to back living room with hardoowd flooring and fireplace is quintessential New England. Off the living room, the all-season sunroom ceiling has been lofted, and the ceiling fan and surrounding windows make this the ideal spot to relax, read a book or watch tv. The large master bedroom has been re-designed to house a larger than normal full bathroom.

The 3rd floor has been transformed into a 4th bedroom and walk in closet – with additional cedar closet storage. In the basement you get a finished room to store sporting equipment or use as a workout space, a carpeted playroom/tv room with fireplace and a cozy home office. Rare in West Hartford’s brick colonials, the current owner added central air with two separate units that cover all three floors as well as a high efficiency natural gas furnace. The backyard has two patios, landscaping with plants indigenous to Connecticut, and a cedar shingled shed. Outdoor lighting and electric outlets make this area usable days/evenings and are perfect for a summer barbeque or firepit. The back yard is private and fenced on three sides and the front lawn has a new sprinkler system. This property is in one of West Hartford's most desirable neighborhoods and school districts, within walking distance to Elizabeth Park and a five minute drive to West Hartford Center, Blue Back Square and the shops in Bishops Corner. You can't beat the location. This house is beautiful inside and out and move-in ready!
