Investment Overview

Marcus & Millichap is pleased to present 312–318 Farmington Avenue, a well-maintained retail strip center located in Hartford, Connecticut’s desirable West End neighborhood. Built in 1951, this attractive brick building comprises six fully leased commercial units, along with a uniquely functional, fully occupied basement, offering operational flexibility and additional utility. This property boasts excellent street visibility and prime frontage along Farmington Avenue, a high-traffic commercial corridor lined with a vibrant mix of apartments, office buildings, and retail destinations. Just minutes from Downtown Hartford and less than a mile to West Hartford, the property is strategically situated between two of the region’s most dynamic and economically diverse areas. Prominent employers in the immediate area include Aetna, The Hartford Financial Services Group, UConn School of Law, and Saint Francis Hospital, all of which drive strong daytime population and consumer demand. The property is also just one mile from Union Station, providing convenient access to public transportation, and benefits from quick connectivity to both I-84 and I-91. Directly across the street are two of Connecticut’s most visited cultural institutions, the Mark Twain House & Museum and the Harriet Beecher Stowe Center, both of which receive ongoing public investment and attract year-round tourism, contributing to consistent foot traffic and long-term location desirability. The building offers dedicated on-site parking in front and a large rear lot, supporting ease of access for both tenants and customers. The current tenant roster reflects exceptional stability, with several businesses operating at the location since the 1990s, a testament to the property’s enduring performance and appeal. With its strong in-place income, longstanding tenant history, and prime location in a supply-constrained market, 312–318 Farmington Avenue presents investors with a rare opportunity to acquire a stabilized, low-management retail asset with upside through future lease restructuring or repositioning.
