    What's special

    Historic four-family houseSoaring high ceilingsNew drivewayLargest double hung windowsExtra shelvingFiberglass shower

    Welcome to the Widow's Watch. This historic four-family house is in a quiet, residential area of single-family houses, yet is only steps to downtown Plantsville. Here you find the future West Hartford "like" Center! Restaurants, bars, ice cream, and the Rails to Trails are out your front door! This exciting new area is going through a true transformation with old factories turning into office and retail spaces. Standing on your front porch you can see the Rail to Trails. If you love biking or running on a coveted route, this is a dream location. This is a first-floor apartment with a lot of the original charm from the 1910's still preserved. The mood is set immediately pulling up to the oversized blue front door. Walking into the apartment, the first thing you will notice is the soaring high ceilings and some of the largest double hung windows you will see in an apartment this size. This drenches the space in natural light and makes a bright and sunny living space. The high ceilings make the space feel much larger than its listed at. The cozy living room could be set up as both a living room and an area for a desk or dining table. The living room is conveniently right off the kitchen. This separates the private bedrooms, which are on the other side of the apartment, from the common spaces and more privacy to the bedrooms. The second bedroom has a washer and dryer in the unit! The full bath is between the two bedrooms. The fiberglass shower is low maintenance, and the extra shelving offers good storage. This is an architectural significant building that is not your run-of-the mill apartment. You will not forget living here! And, of course, with the widow watch (inner cupola), it's makes for some cool pictures too. The house has all long-term, quiet, and professional tenants. One of the best parts of the apartment is new high efficiency combo heat and hot water boiler. This is extremely efficient with a tankless water heater. It keeps bills very reasonable. Tenant pays an electric bill and a gas. Cold water, snow removal, landscaping, trash are owner's responsibility. Two off street parking spaces available. The property also has a new driveway! If you value a very clean apartment, this is apartment is spotless! Please keep in mind there is a strict application process that focuses heavily on credit. A minimum 675 credit score for all adults is required. There is also a back ground, employment and income verification. Pets considered on case-by-case basis. This property is professionally managed. If you are interested, please email to setup a private tour or to answer any questions. Thank you for considering the Widow's Watch for your next home. Anthony
