Coveted home in Waterbury neighborhood! This spacious 4-bedroom, 2-story blends timeless character with modern updates, including a new HVAC (2024), recently updated kitchen and baths, and fresh paint throughout. Gleaming hardwood floors greet you at a charming front door that opens into a spacious living room. Spanning the width of the home, this open space, with fireplace and original surround, sparkles with natural light from its southern exposure. The living room flows into a formal dining room, flanked by white French doors that lead to a massive, carpeted, and freshly painted screened-in porch, perfect for family meals, morning coffee, and bird-watching. An eat-in kitchen and 1/2 bath round out the main floor. The second floor boasts 4 generously sized, light-filled bedrooms and an updated full bath. The finished third floor serves as a 5th non-conforming bedroom, man cave, band studio, or playroom. The lower level offers a 2-car tuck-under garage, a utility room, and a workshop or garden room. Every inch of this shaded property has been lovingly landscaped with colorful perennials, shrubbery, trees, and several outdoor patios, creating an oasis for family and friends.
