Just Sold Home in Downtown Bethel,CT

Real Estate Agent with William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty CT RES.0783448


Jonathan Hall with William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty just sold  charming vintage era home in downtown Bethel,CT. Located at 14 High Street in Bethel. The home was being sold by it's 3rd family since it's over 100 year history. The sellers lived in the home for close to twenty years, raising their children's here, before moving locally to a larger home. On-going maintenance and improvements were made over the years making the home. Projects include newer gas furnance & central air conditioning, newer kitchen applicances and   renovated full bath with schoolhouse sink. Many of the orginal features and detail work remained, including orginal glass paneled built in cabinets, picture molding, hardwood floors and charming front porch.  Additional items included an invisible fence system, vegetable gardens, separate storage shed, firepit and a front and back staircase. The village center location was key to the sale of the property. Downtown Bethel has come alive over the few years offering fun local restaurants, independent movie & coffee house, brewery, quaint stores, train station, libary, ice cream parlor, two grocery stores and more. The downtown location lead to the home offering a sidewalk, natural gas heat (tied in from the street), city water and city sewer.  



A careful pricing strategy was made. Jonathan and his very experienced co-listing Terri couldn't find exact matches but know the house would appeal to those seeking a quality home in a central location. A flurry of activity resulted in 9 offers for at least the listed price. Unfortunately the top two bidders did not go forward with the house and then furhter marketing resulted in 6 more offers of which a couple were repeated bidders. The winner of that round didn't perform, and so we ended up going with that backup. The house was sold 'as is' at a very acceptable value to the owners, $470,000.  The home did close July 20, 2022. 


The seller was pleased with marketing and efforts took to secure the right buyer. The local buyer appreciated everything the sellers family has done to the home and promises to upheld the high standard of maintenances . The sellers were a family member of a recently retired real estate friend of Jonathan & Terri who know who was the best fit to help out.
