3-Bedroom, 2-Bath Cape in Meriden, CT Seeks New Owner with Vision! I'm a classic Cape-style home located in the southern part of Meriden, Connecticut, and I'm looking for someone who's ready to bring out my full potential. With 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and an open dining room / living room, I offer a spacious layout. My downstairs is partially finished and would be perfect for a playroom, home office, gym, or entertainment space. I've got great bones, with a new roof and solar (no electric bill!). My extra big level lot is great for outdoor fun, gardening, or relaxing weekends. I also come with a 2-car attached garage, and a carport, perfect for your cars, lawn equipment, or creative space. My fenced private backyard with a wide deck gives you even more opportunity for entertaining and enjoying the outdoors. I'm walking distance to a Blue-Ribbon elementary school and Stop & Shop and conveniently located to Rt. 15 and I-91 - less than 30 minutes to New Haven, Hartford, Middletown and Waterbury. If you're a first-time homeowner, savvy investor, or DIY enthusiast, we might be a perfect match. Let's build something beautiful together!
