Perched on top of Meeting House Hill, 192 Dexter Avenue offers a rare blend of mid-century character, thoughtful updates, and flexible living space-all with sweeping views and a setting that feels both private and connected. The main level features 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, with hardwood floors, tile, and an easy, natural flow throughout. The kitchen is lined with an entire wall of cabinetry, offering both style and function, while the living space is anchored by a cozy wood-burning stove with blower-perfect for adding warmth and ambiance on cooler days. A front bedroom offers added flexibility and can easily be partitioned to create a private home office with French doors. Downstairs, the fully renovated lower level opens the door to incredible potential. With its own private entrance, separate heating zone, full kitchen, spacious bedroom, updated bathroom, and abundant storage, this space is ideal for a possible in-law setup, guest suite, or extended living arrangement. It can also be fully locked off from the main level and has a separate fenced area outside for added privacy. An expansive laundry area doubles as additional space for a game room, workshop, or storage. Additional features include central air, a large walk-up attic, and a layout designed to adapt to a variety of living needs. Conveniently located just minutes from downtown Wallingford's restaurants, shops, and local favorites like Choate Rosemary Hall, easy access to I-91, I-691, Route 15, and Route 5 Please submit highest and best by Monday 4/20 at 6 PM
