This Waterbury home has the updates everyone wants while still keeping the charm that makes the neighborhood so special. The main level has great natural light and an easy flow between the living room, dining space and kitchen. The recently remodeled kitchen has a clean, timeless feel with plenty of cabinetry and counter space, plus stainless appliances. All of the bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated as well, with modern finishes that give them a polished, high-end feel. Second-floor laundry is another huge bonus and an everyday convenience you’ll quickly appreciate. The basement was remodeled and finished in 2024, adding even more usable space with a rec room, wet bar and room for an office, playroom or workout area. The big-ticket items have been taken care of too, with a new roof and gutters in 2019 and AC in 2024. Outside, the large, mature yard offers plenty of room to enjoy, along with a patio and attached two-car garage. So much has already been done here, but the house still feels like a Waterbury home — full of character, with great spaces and updates that make it easy to move right in.
