    1821 Governors Estate for sale! Calling all investors, owner occupants and history buffs, this brick Colonial located in the Southwest neighborhood is the one for you. Rich with history, this property is known as the oldest "brick dwelling" on top of the hill and was once part of the historic Wilcott Heights region. It was also a known home to Oliver Wolcott, Jr. who served as the United States Secretary of the Treasury in 1795, under George Washington as well as the 24th Governor of Connecticut. This charming house still has many original details such as glass doors with mahogany and their doorknobs. This home can be kept as a single family with possible in law set up or can be converted to a two family property with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 kitchens and over 2800 square feet total. This home is also very dog friendly, boasting 4 extra large doggy doors, 2 upstairs and 2 downstairs with a fenced in yard perfect for your four legged best friends. There is ample room for parking with a 2 car garage as additional spaces. Hartford also offers an "all choice" schooling system and nearby schools include; Kennelly School, Hooker School as well as Batchelder School. A little sweat equity would go a long way with the amazing bones this one has as well as all the legacy and back story.
