Looking for the perfect cottage in the Waterbury area? Here it is. Loaded with charm: features include hardwood floors, a white kitchen, first floor bedroom/ office, sun drenched solarium overlooking a fenced back yard perfect for gardening. In fact, the established perennial gardens, lovingly planned, are waiting for you to enjoy. The inviting living room has a gas fireplace surrounded by custom designed book shelves. The formal dining room is great for dinner parties. The two large sunny upstairs bedrooms have good closets and are larger bedrooms than in "some" very expensive homes. There is a great exercise or movie room in the spotless lower level. The yard is straight out from the home with a patio and functions like an 'outdoor' room. Well maintained , there are many newer windows. Charm plus condition, this is a true find.
