Nestled on a quiet street in the highly sought-after Waterbury neighborhood and described by the owners as a little village—this beautiful brick home offers timeless character. The main floor features a rare setup with an additional master bedroom and en-suite bath, ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or a private retreat. You’ll also find a dedicated office, a spacious living room, and an inviting kitchen and dining area. A large sunroom on the west side opens to a spacious deck, creating the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining. Upstairs you'll find four bedrooms with lots of closet space, and three bedrooms. The expansive front yard functions as a backyard oasis thanks to the home’s quiet setting and minimal traffic—an ideal spot for play or outdoor living. Inside, you’ll find original doors, hardwood floors under the carpet, and enduring craftsmanship throughout. Recent improvements include some updated mechanicals and a new water service line (Fall 2025) for added peace of mind. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Waterbury charm—spacious, classic, and filled with potential.
