Classic 1909 Colonial filled with the warmth and character you simply don't find in newer homes. Freshly painted inside and out, this 3-bedroom home showcases beautiful original woodwork throughout, including rich wood trim, doors and staircase details that reflect the craftsmanship of its era. A brand-new roof was installed in June 2026, providing an important recent update. The main level offers a comfortable living room, dining area and kitchen, while all three bedrooms are located upstairs. A full unfinished basement and full walk-up attic provide plenty of additional storage. The home features gas heat, city water and city sewer. Set on a generous .33-acre lot, the property offers a spacious backyard with a fenced area directly behind the home, a raised rear deck and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors. Parking is another plus, with a convenient parking area near the front entrance, additional driveway parking and a one-car detached garage. Conveniently located close to shopping, restaurants and everyday amenities, with easy access for commuting to Hartford. With its original architectural details, new roof, fresh paint, generous lot and practical updates, this home offers a wonderful combination of classic New England character and everyday convenience.

Wells Quarter, located between Old Wethersfield and the Silas Deane Highway corridor, is a historic and residential Wethersfield neighborhood with tree-lined side streets and a walkable village feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Main Street near the intersection with Church Street, where brick sidewalks frame small storefronts, porch-front homes, and a steady rhythm of local foot traffic. Architectural cues lean Colonial and Federal, with tidy lots and mature maples shaping the streetscape. Wethersfield Cove and nearby green spaces add a shoreline edge for strolls and seasonal views. Community life often orbits long-running local institutions like Heirloom Market at Comstock Ferre, the Webb-Deane-Stevens Museum, and the Wethersfield Farmers Market.
