About This Home

Welcome to The Abbotsford Colonial! This West Hartford colonial (single family) has recently been updated with refinished hardwood floors, a newer bathroom, kitchen, and everything has been professionally painted. The best part of the house is the “front to back” living room. This expansive and open living room connects all the rooms on the first floor and ties in the attractive staircase to the 2nd floor. You could call this the heart of the house or where you will spend most of your time enjoying the home. It’s very convenient to both the kitchen and dining room as both open to the living room. The gleaming hardwood floors stretch the living room and combined with the newer Thermopane windows, really makes this a welcoming and bright space. The living room also has a wood fireplace and period wood mantle that adds to the New England ambiance and the exposed open staircase shows off the 1949 workmanship and character. Almost any size furniture can fit in this living room. It’s large enough to make one section a formal sitting/reading area in the front and then more of a den/tv section in the back. To complete the first floor there is a formal dining room. There is a bonus closet in the dining room and a modern chandelier. The kitchen is conveniently connected to both the dining room and the living room. The kitchen recently went through an upgrade with beautiful white quartz counters, subway tile backsplash, brass plumbing fixtures and cabinet hardware, and a new undermounted sink. There is also a chef’s favorite stainless steel gas stove. There is space for a small table in the kitchen and the new sconce lights add a fancy flair. A surprise will be the newer full bathroom on the second floor. It has subway tile shower walls, newer plumbing, and a newer ceramic tile floor. There is a large 34-inch vanity for all your storing needs and a new exhaust fan. The wainscoting on the walls gives the bathroom an updated and charming look. There are three bedrooms all on the second level and all with closets. The refinished hardwood floors continue throughout the second floor. The entire interior has been professional painted with designer paint from Sherwin Williams. The house has a washer and dryer in the lower level that is included with the rental. The basement is unfinished but offers some storage options or the ability to use it as workshop or workout area. The partially fenced in backyard offers a private lawn and the one car garage offers additional storage. The house is located near the end of Abbotsford Ave in a quiet section. A short drive and all your shopping needs are on New Britain Ave or the popular Elmwood section of town. The schools in West Hartford are ranked some of the best in the state! West Hartford Center, Blue Back Square, and many parks are all close by the house. CT Fastrack is conveniently up the street.
