Welcome to 5 Colton Ave in Plainville, a spacious 5-bedroom, 2 full bathroom raised ranch with tremendous potential. Lovingly owned by the same family for 40 years, this home now presents an exciting opportunity for buyers ready to put their personal stamp on it. The home offers generously sized rooms, wall-to-wall carpeting in every bedroom, and a functional layout designed for everyday living. The primary bedroom features double closets and sliding door access to a private balcony a peaceful spot for morning coffee or quiet evenings outdoors. The lower level includes two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom, with one bedroom offering a glass slider that brings in natural light and easy outdoor access. As expected with a well-lived-in home of this age, some repairs and cosmetic upgrades will be needed, making this an ideal candidate for buyers, investors, or renovators looking to build equity and customize to their taste. Several key improvements have already been taken care of: a newer roof, solar panels for energy efficiency, newer windows, and an updated laundry room window meaning the big-ticket exterior items are behind you. Outside, the backyard features a storage shed and a raised garden bed ready for flowers, herbs, or vegetables. A larger driveway provides added convenience and extra parking. Priced to reflect its current condition, this is a rare chance to get into a established neighborhood and make a home truly your own.
