About this home
Step into the timeless charm of Bethel with this classic antique Colonial, cherished by the same family for almost 50 years. Rich with character and awaiting its next chapter, this four-bedroom home offers a delightful canvas for bringing your vision to life. Original details and a classic layout provide an inviting foundation for a truly special residence. Once refreshed, the combination of historic character and modern finishes will create a remarkable home in one of Bethel's most convenient locations. This home is being sold As-Is, and a new boiler and hot water heater, both installed in 2025, provide a great head start. The compact parcel means less time devoted to yard maintenance and more time enjoying everything just beyond your doorstep. Caraluzzi's, local coffee shops, restaurants, and the vibrant downtown Bethel scene are just a block or so away, while the Bethel Metro-North station just one mile away provides convenient commuter access. For more than three decades, this home was lovingly occupied by wonderful tenants, adding to a remarkable family history spanning half a century. Now, this charming home is ready to be reimagined and enjoyed for decades to come.
