About this property

Guest Fave Cape-Cod Style Retreat with Main-Level Bedroom bordering Farmington

Welcome to our tranquil New Britain retreat! Nestled near the Farmington border amid West Hartford, Newington, and Southington, this peaceful escape offers serene forest and grass views, ideal for bird/rabbit watching, walking, and biking.

Featuring bedrooms on both levels and mostly hardwood floors, our home exudes a cozy ambiance. Situated in a semi-urban neighborhood, it's just a short commute to Hartford and Meriden, making it the perfect 2-hour escape from NYC.

Our quaint and well-equipped 5-star home away is ideal for a stress-free getaway or relocator's haven. Whether you're seeking a break from the city or a private space when visiting family, this tree-lined block offers a quiet retreat with a vast grassed yard perfect for yoga or a morning cup of tea or coffee.

In the summer, expect a bird watcher's paradise and an instant tanning salon while enjoying a fresh glass of lemonade.

Very cute house in New Britain very close to Farmington and West Hartford. The house was very well put together and matched the description. The couch in the main room was super comfy and hit the spot when I needed to rest up after work. I hope to come back.
