About 52 Girard Avenue
This West End Victorian is a fantastic opportunity for those who appreciate classic architecture, modern finishes, and proximity to Elizabeth Park and UConn Law. The main level has an open, functional layout. The formal foyer greets you with a turned staircase, featuring a stained glass window. The living room has a beautiful, stacked window which lets in so much light. It opens to a den, featuring the original wood burning fireplace. A sizable formal dining room leads to an updated kitchen. The kitchen has plenty of cabinets, stone counters, island seating, a farmhouse sink, and a cooking range with pot filler. An updated powder room and unheated mudroom complete the space. Upstairs, you'll find a primary suite with walk-in closet and spa bath, featuring an original soaking tub and tiled shower. There are two additional bedrooms, one with access to the upper porch. You'll appreciate the remodeled hallway bathroom and laundry closet. The third floor has two additional rooms and unfinished attic space. Outside, the oversized level lot has plenty of greenspace for gardening and play, as well as a freestanding deck, great for summer evenings outside. Many valuable mechanical improvements have also been made, including a new roof (2023), rewiring 100% of the home and upgrading to 200amp service (2012), replacing all hot/cold water plumbing throughout the house (2012), rebuilding the porch (2022), installing a new driveway (2024), and new storm windows, screens, and storm doors.
