51 Soby Drive, West Hartford, CT 06117

Your new home awaits at the top of Soby Drive, a haven that provides peace and privacy but is only a few minutes from all that West Hartford has to offer. Constructed in 2013 by Avonridge Custom Homes on over an acre, this single-owner property is the definition of livable luxury. Without sacrificing style, the function of the home has been carefully considered to provide all of the conveniences of modern living. Entering through the front door, you are welcomed into the main living areas of the home, with the living room to the left and the dining room to the right. You will notice the high ceilings, gorgeous hardwood floors, an abundance of natural light, and stunning millwork here and throughout the rest of the home. As you approach the rear of the home you are met with an open floor plan that houses the kitchen, a casual dining area, and the family room. The kitchen would please even the most discriminating chef with high-end stainless steel appliances including a Wolf six-burner gas range and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. Other features include an extra large island, gorgeous granite counters, a warming drawer, custom cabinetry, a large pantry, and a separate bar area with a beverage chiller. An entertainer’s dream, the rooms on the main floor flow easily from one to another. Surround sound, gas fireplaces in both the living and family rooms, and plentiful lighting create a warm and cheerful ambiance for all of your gatherings. Additional first-floor highlights are the mudroom, two powder rooms, and an office space with two built-in desks. The mudroom is the one dreams are made of, with five storage lockers, additional shoe storage, laundry, and radiant heat flooring. Head upstairs to find four spacious bedrooms, all ensuite with walk-in closets. The primary bedroom has two walk-in closets, and a spectacular full bath with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, dual sinks, separate water closet, and radiant heat flooring. Storage abounds with custom cabinetry for toiletries and linens. There is a convenient laundry room on the second floor as well. Back on the main floor, there are two sets of French doors leading to one of the home's most outstanding features, the expansive covered porch with a wood-burning fireplace, sitting areas, and an al fresco dining area. Warm yourself with hot chocolate in front of the fire, or toast s’mores on a summer night. The bluestone patio provides additional entertaining space, and the large, flat backyard is suitable for a pool or other outdoor amenities. Mature trees provide privacy throughout the seasons, and professional landscaping perfectly accents the home. The lower level has been finished with high-quality materials consistent with the rest of the home and includes a large fifth bedroom with a walk-in closet, a full bath, a kitchenette, a generous recreational space, and a gym area. Perfect for guests, older children, an au pair, or an in-law suite! All mechanicals are in excellent condition and have been well maintained.
