This does not look much different from a home that I photographed in the West End in September. This is the type of house associated with Hartford thanks to shows like the Gilmore Girls. This one is in the Blue Hills neighborhood, just off a busy route that leads to Bloomfield.
The Blue Hills neighborhood is bordered by Bloomfield, West Hartford, and the West End, Asylum Hill, Upper Albany, and North East neighborhoods. Keney Park is nearby. Though isolated from downtown, this area has its own businesses and is not far from shopping centers in Bloomfield. While being in downtown may have conveniences, it is not conducive to raising a family, unless your family does not mind hearing the bass from nightclubs on school nights.
