Cromwell
Quiet bedroom community between Hartford and Middletown
Cromwell sits along the Connecticut River between Hartford and Middletown, a smaller, quieter town that often gets overlooked by buyers focused on the bigger surrounding cities. The TPC River Highlands (host of the PGA Tour's Travelers Championship) is the town's most recognizable landmark. Housing is dominated by 1960s-1990s colonials, capes, and ranches on quarter- to half-acre lots, plus a meaningful stock of riverfront and water-view homes. Buyers come to Cromwell for the value relative to Glastonbury or West Hartford, the easy I-91 access in both directions, and a quieter pace. The town has a small downtown but isn't strongly identified by it.
