24 Lyons St

Welcome to 24 Lyons Street, New Britain. This first floor apartment is a part of an exquisite two-family house in a quiet section of town nearing the Kensington/Berlin line and walking distance to Marta Hart Park. This is the first time this unit has become available to rent, as it has been owner-occupied for decades! The owner-occupied part is evident immediately on pulling up to the house. There are too many updates to list here, but the curb appeal is striking, and it's one of the nicest houses on the street. The house has newer vinyl siding, Thermopane windows, and a beautiful craftsman style front door. The house sits up on a professional tiered front lawn with mature landscaping that is very fitting and welcoming. The elevated front porch creates a private and relaxing outdoor living space for the first floor tenant. Inside the red oak hardwood floors run throughout the apartment. This stretches the space and gives that warmth and classic feel that makes these 1930 multi-family houses so appealing. There are charming details inside like the French doors to the sunroom (this room would make an amazing remote office space with views of the garden). There are two period pillars with built-in bookcases that separate the living and dining room. All three bedrooms are on the opposite side of these common rooms which offers added privacy. A surprise will be the updated kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen has matte granite (black and white) counters that are stunning and typically not seen in rentals. There are two new stainless-steel appliances including a new SS dishwasher. The oversized refrigerator goes well with the spacious kitchen and there is still plenty of space for a table or prepping island. The bathroom has a "designer-like" ceramic tile niche with in shower shelving for shampoo and soaps. All three bedrooms are a good size and could fit queen/king size beds. There is a convenient washer and dryer and laundry area inside the apartment and just
