About Cheshire.
Cheshire is a quiet, school-focused town with Cheshire Academy, the Farmington Canal Heritage Trail and quick access to I-691 and Route 10. Buyers typically choose it for the schools and the lot sizes.
It sits at a higher price point than Southington and Meriden, and buyers here expect a polished listing.
How we work in Cheshire.
Present at the standard buyers expect
Cheshire buyers are paying a premium over neighboring towns and notice condition. Professional photography and pre-listing repairs pay for themselves.
Market to the move-up buyer
Cheshire is a natural step up from Southington, Meriden and Wallingford, so we make sure those buyers see the listing.
Use the trail and schools
These are the two features buyers mention first, and they belong near the top of the description.
