475 Connecticut Avenue Newington, CT 06111

A solid 60's classic colonial with energy-efficient upgrades AND that most desired room, the perfect first-floor Home Office, "central, yet separate." Take comfort knowing you have a New Natural Gas Combo Boiler and Thermo-pane windows throughout. The interior is freshly painted and flooring is oak hardwood on both first and second floors. A combined Living and Dining Room centered on a masonry fireplace creates a Great Room for gathering, and the eat-in kitchen, with blond birch cabinetry, looks out on a deep yard. Or get a closer look and step out from the kitchen onto your partially covered deck, with beaded board ceiling and fan. Extend your grilling season and expand your guest list. There's even a side terrace of brick, and the fenced yard is a level stretch of sunny open lawn, great for kicking a ball around or planting a garden. Three upstairs bdrms include one with a king-size bed and sitting area. The tiled bath has an upgraded shower w/new fixtures & frameless glass slider. The attic is a breezy walkup and the basement invites expansion with a second fireplace and open area good for play, hobby, workshop or exercise. Newington was established in 1871, and the name means "New town on the Meadow." The High School earns high marks and the town hosts a variety of traditional community activities and events, such as summer concerts at Mill Pond, the hugely popular "Extravaganza" due to return in 2021, Night of Lights , and hiking along the Greenway. Come take a look.
