Perched near the end of a quiet street, this classic Waterbury home offers tons of privacy surrounded in oak trees. You are greeted through the front door with a charming nook/drop zone and gorgeous original wood floors under arched doorways. There is a gas fireplace in the living room and the formal dining room has French doors that open onto a spacious, secluded front porch/patio. The updated kitchen has granite countertops, beautiful birch cabinets with pull-out shelves, and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family/TV room that also opens onto the front porch/patio. A real bonus: there is a powder room just off the kitchen. Upstairs, you will find all four bedrooms plus an office with built-in shelving.
The roof is less than 10 years old. New dryer in August 2024, ADT security system, and radon mitigation system. There is a large two-car detached garage and there is plenty of parking in the driveway just off the alley.
