This storybook Cape Cod-Style home is in the heart of West Hartford Center, with quick and easy access to restaurants, shopping, and so much more! It will delight you from the moment you approach the front door, to the moment you leave the immaculate landscaping in the back yard. The enclosed front porch has gorgeous vintage windows that open to let the breeze in. The home boasts not one, but two, gas fireplaces. The first is in the living room, a lovely spot to entertain or relax. The living room opens into the remodeled eat-in kitchen where you will enjoy your morning coffee next to the large bay window. Preparing meals will be a pleasure surrounded by gleaming cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and granite counters. A rear enclosed porch off of the kitchen is a perfect mudroom. The formal dining room and the first floor office round out the main level, along with a beautifully remodeled full bath. Either the dining room or the office could function as a bedroom as well, depending on your needs. Upstairs are three cozy bedrooms with built-ins and another full bath that is accessible from the primary bedroom. The partially finished basement is the perfect hangout, with the second gas fireplace and a half bath. A large two car garage and a new whole house generator are extra conveniences. This home has been meticulously maintained providing peace of mind for years to come! Don't sleep on this one - this charming home isn't missing a thing!
