56 Whitney St

This charming West End Victorian has wonderful natural light, a flexible floor plan, beautifully refinished wood floors, and many original architectural features. Located close to neighborhood restaurants and shops, Elizabeth Park, Downtown Hartford, public transportation and highway access, you'll want to come take a look! The unique rounded front porch welcomes your guests to an open foyer where they can appreciate the high ceilings, pocket doors, original fireplace, and period trim detail. There are two sizeable rooms for gathering and entertaining at the front of the home. A formal dining room with built-in china cabinet is adjacent to the kitchen with eat-in space. Beyond the kitchen is a renovated powder room and mudroom entering from the back porch. Upstairs, you'll find an oversized primary suite with a full bathroom and double closets. There are three additional nicely sized bedrooms and a remodeled hallway bathroom. The third floor is a walk-up attic area that is great for storage, with perfect finishing potential if you need more space. The current owner has made many exterior updates including- rebuilding the front and rear porches, re-siding much of the home, a full paint job in classic colors, restoring the original wood windows, installing new gutters, storm windows, and screen doors, and installing owned solar panels (no electric bills since the panels were installed in 2023). The gas high efficiency boiler/hot water heater was installed in late 2020.
