Description
Nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac just one minute from Main Street, this 3BR, 2.1BTH center-hall Colonial blends vintage charm with many beautiful updates in a truly picturesque and convenient Southbury setting. A traditional entry and portico set the tone, and inside you'll find warm, inviting spaces filled with character. The main level offers a comfortable mix of formal and informal, including a spacious living room with a fireplace, a playroom, a sun-filled office or den with a wet bar, and a powder room. The kitchen is well equipped with ample cabinetry, tile flooring, and a garden window overlooking the yard. A large, vaulted sunroom, currently used year-round as a dining room, fills with natural light and provides an inviting space for both everyday meals and special occasions. Two spacious decks step down to a level, private yard with mature plantings, garden beds, flowering perennials, and a gardening shed. A retractable awning on the main deck makes outdoor dining and relaxing even more enjoyable. A small pathway in the backyard of the property provides access to Main Street. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes a large walk-in closet and full bath. Two additional bedrooms with built-in shelving share a full hall bath. New designer wallpaper, paint, and wood flooring bring brightness throughout. A walk-up attic and spacious basement offer ample storage., The detached two-car garage measures 32 x 24 and includes a workstation and shelving, plus a large walk-up loft, ideal for a studio, workshop, or additional storage. Many recent improvements include a new septic leaching area installed in October 2022, a roof replaced in 2017, a boiler from 2019, a new well pump installed in 2023, and a new basement waterproofing system installed in 2024.
