The Grennan Porches

The Grennan Double Decker - Welcome to 112 Grennan Road, West Hartford – The Double Decker on Grennan.
Let’s start with the front porch, which is not only a highlight of this property, but maybe all West Hartford Center.
This original open-aired front porch looks out onto a quiet street THREE blocks from the hip West Hartford Center. This private second-floor porch is only accessed by this apartment and is wide and long enough to set up a complete outdoor living space.
This space abuts three large windows of the living room which really connects the porch to inside the apartment. A perfect spot to relax with your computer, book, or coffee. Outdoor living spaces are the fastest growing trend in real estate, and this is an ideal setup.
The apartment consists of both the second and third floors of a two-family house.
Inside the apartment are large, updated Thermopane windows that drench each room with a lot of natural light. This is one of the brightest apartments you will find, especially in the afternoon with the front porch and living room facing west.
The classic fir hardwood floors are a special bonus to this property and run throughout both floors. The apartment has recently been professionally painted with designer neutral colors and it feels like a modern and updated space.
The living room is the first room off the porch and the focal point is the wood burning fireplace and wood mantle. This room is the perfect size to set up a sectional couch and a big screen tv with the fireplace ambiance.
There is a formal dining room in the middle of the apartment with a custom-built hutch. This is the type of woodwork that you don’t see in newer construction and brings so much charm and uniqueness to the apartment. In addition, the entire apartment has “federal style” crown molding around all the doors and window casings.
One of the best parts of the apartment is right off the dining room is a tucked away laundry room in the apartment. Both washer and dryer and are included with the rental.
In the back of the apartment is a granite kitchen with “inlay” style cabinets that are typically not seen in a multi-family house. These stunning cabinets have a variety of glass doors and useful pantry shelves/drawers. Combined with the stainless-steel appliances and breakfast bar, this is one of the best multi-family kitchens that you will see.
There is a quiet porch off the kitchen that overlooks a private and lush yard. The yard is a big bonus to this property, as again, this space is typically paved and not a desirable space.
The second floor almost feels like an entirely new apartment that has been added on. There are two bedrooms, one in the front and one in the back with a large full bathroom in between. The separation of the floors and bedrooms makes this a great setup for roommates that are looking for more privacy or quiet spaces.
You get all this in possibly the best location in town. You are three blocks from the top 50 town centers in the country! that offers everything from specialty gyms, running clubs, roof top bars, and now, tons of outdoor dining.
Some of the best happy hours are walking distance away like Max’s Oyster Bar, and of course, ten different ice cream shops. Just walking through the center is exciting and uplifting experience. Some of the best restaurants in the state are right here and there is more like movie theater, outdoor music, library, etc.
Lastly, you are also next door to Fern Park which offers a pool membership, a winding brook to fish, playscapes, basketball courts, baseball fields, and open green space.
The common theme is everything is walking distance and you are in the heart of it all at 112 Grennan. West Hartford is also known to have the some of the highest ranked public schools in the state.
The last surprise is a central air (split duct system) which was installed on each floor to add central cooling. This is rare to find central cooling and also the option to use it as a heat pump (efficient way of heating). There is also affordable natural gas heat.
