    What's special

    Your dream home has arrived! Welcome home to 157 Balfour Drive in West Hartford. Located in one of only a few West Hartford neighborhoods to have it all. Spectacular views of Downtown Hartford and West Hartford Center, secluded streets to walk/run, natural gas, and public utilities. The home itself is a marvel, a contemporary colonial masterpiece, highlighted by the all brick exterior, professional landscaping, and three car garage. Inside now, you are greeted by the grand foyer with a floor to ceiling view that can only broaden as you continue. The first floor has everything you could ever imagine needing. It holds the living room, dining room, family room, sun room, laundry room, kitchen, master bedroom suite, and multiple exits to the balconies and the massive deck. A great majority of the rooms have cathedral ceilings, hardwood floors and newer windows/skylights. The master bedroom has a walk in closet and a private balcony. Nearby the master bath stuns with floor to wall tiling plus a double vanity and a jacuzzi tub. The remainder of the home presents nothing but options. Both the upper and lower floors have two additional bedrooms each. Any of these can be used/converted for an office, play room, or an in-law/au pair suite. All of this 5000 plus sqft is heated by forced air powered by natural gas and cooled by central air. Last but not least are the patio and deck spaces with those million dollar views! Ideally then the home is priced under $900,000, see it today!
