What's so great about the Buena Vista neighborhood?

Well, it's one of West Hartford's cutest neighborhoods (they even have their own street signs!) and it's also pretty convenient to everything. Need groceries? Five minutes away from Stop & Shop. Feel like taking a swim? Five minutes to Cornerstone Aquatics Center. Love to shop? Five minutes to Westfarms Mall & Corbin's Corner. Like to run, bike or hike? Five minutes to the West Hartford Reservoir. Is golf your thing? Buena Vista 9-hole golf course is right around the corner (for those not familiar with the area, it's a great place to take the kids to learn to play golf). Okay, by now you probably get the convenience factor.

Nestled on the west side of town between Tunxis Road and Farmington Avenue, Buena Vista homes are noted for their neatly manicured lawns, mostly compact design, and low traffic location. Many were built in the 1950's & 60's (some much earlier) and a few homes have gorgeous views of the Hartford skyline. Buena Vista home owners even have their own association with an e-mail newsletter, business directory, events & photo gallery!

My listing at 44 Meadow Farms Road is right smack in the middle of this wonderful Buena Vista neighborhood! It's charming interior is perfectly matched with the lovely perennial gardens that the owner has taken great care in creating. This 2-bedroom ranch-style home features an eat-in kitchen, fresh paint & hardwood floors throughout, updated bath, 3-season porch, new central air, 1-car attached garage and beautiful landscaping-- filled with hydrangea, lilac, peony, lavender, iris & viburnum among others! It's a great starter home or condo alternative (priced at $235,000) and located only about 1-1/2 miles from West Hartford Center & Blue Back Square. Easy commuter access to Route 9 & I-84. The perfect place to call home!
