Meticulous Cape Cod style home sits atop a majestic hill in the desirable Waterbury neighborhood. As you approach the inviting walkway you are greeted by a wonderful wooden door that makes you think of the way things used to be. Take just a few steps into the entry and you will immediately recognize the tile that came out of the capital building back when it was remodeled. To the right you can entertain a quaint group in a formal living room and then retreat to the open dining room that sits adjacent. With a few more steps you open glass French doors to an oversized family room with built-ins and a picture window. Walking back behind this space there is a generous sized eat in kitchen area that has a pass-through window to the galley kitchen. If a first-floor bedroom is what you need then it will be very handy to have just off the living space and near the first-floor bathroom. Up a fabulous set of wooden steps and from the landing you will see both bedrooms with dormer nooks perfect for a desk or a sitting area. Both bedrooms upstairs are serviced by a full bathroom. Beneath the home there is a 2-car tandem garage with additional unfinished rec room beyond the parking space. There is also a lush, large fenced in back yard with a tree house, perfect for the afternoon retreat. Stop by and come check it out yourself. see my.matterport link attached for a full 360' view
