This one's got all the charm and then some! Tucked away in a quiet, desirable neighborhood just minutes from the heart of Wallingford, this lovingly maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bath Victorian feels like home the moment you arrive. From the classic wrap-around front porch to the beautifully landscaped yard, this home blends timeless character with everyday comfort. Step inside to find sun-filled rooms, hardwood floors throughout, and a bright white kitchen with stainless steel appliances that opens right out to the back deck-perfect for sipping your morning coffee or winding down on summer nights overlooking the peaceful backyard. The main level offers a full bath and laundry for everyday ease, while upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms and another full bath. You'll love having central air, GAS heat, and a NEW gas hot water heater-plus the major perk of WALLINGFORD ELECTRIC for low utility costs. A 2-car garage adds extra storage and functionality. Just minutes to schools, shops, restaurants, parks, and everything downtown has to offer-this is one you don't want to miss. It's the kind of home that just feels good the second you step inside. Come see for yourself!
