Characteristics
Transportation
The favored means of transportation in Farmington Woods is very often a car. Parking is quite easy. Farmington Woods is not particularly bicycling-friendly because riding is rendered difficult by the typically hilly topography, and there are a limited number of bike lanes. This part of the Greater Hartford metropolitan area is also not very conducive to pedestrians as very few common errands can be run without the need to use a car.
Services
It can be very hard to get to high schools and primary schools as a pedestrian from homes for sale in this community. With respect to eating, it is sometimes possible for property owners in Farmington Woods to access the nearest supermarket without a car. There are also a few choices for those who value restaurants within a short distance.
Character
Farmington Woods is a great community to buy a house in for those who prefer a calm ambience. Farmington Woods is very quiet overall, as the streets are very peaceful. Parks aren't well-distributed, which makes them rather challenging to access. Despite that, there are approximately 10 parks nearby for residents to explore, such as Thompson-Osborne Refuge and Property of Marilyn P. Cohen.
