A 4,487-square-foot West Hartford building hosting a veterinary hospital recently sold for $1.85 million.
A staff member of Cats Limited, at 1260 New Britain Ave., said the feline-focused practice will continue uninterrupted with the same staff in the same location.
The former residential property was converted to office use and dates back to 1840, according to assessing records. It sits on a third of an acre.
In a deal logged by the town on May 3, SLM Associates sold 1260 New Britain Ave., to Keeper-West Hartford LLC, which lists the West Hartford property as its business address.
Keeper-West’s principal is another LLC based out of Portland, Maine.
The seller, SLM Associates LLC, paid $695,000 for the property in 2006, according to assessing records. Its principal is Diana J. Lafer, of West Hartford, founder of Cats Limited.
Lafer stepped down as medical director of the practice in January, with plans to retire in May, according to a notice on the Cats Limited website. Two other veterinarians have stepped in as co-medical directors, according to the notice.
