## Description

### Agent Description
Luxury is effortless when every detail is designed for distinction. Rooted in the heart of Waterbury, this fully remodeled (2016-2025) 3,336 finished sqft. home embodies timeless craftsmanship and modern clarity. A rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready residence. Designed for those ready to step forward with purpose. Unmatched Quality featuring refined finishes, custom cabinetry, and spa-inspired baths. Chef's Kitchen with Subzero refrigerator, wine fridge, and freezer, Kitchenaid professional gas oven, Wolf steamer, dual sinks, warming drawer, butcher block and Cambria quartz surfaces, and a 9' x 6' island built for hosting, creating, and connection. The Hearth Room, a warm central gathering space, anchors the home with comfort and intention. Expansive Outdoor Living with a screened-in composite deck, open-air deck, and patio that bridge luxury and leisure. Three Fireplaces & an Exterior Fire Pit offer ambiance year-round-from crisp spring mornings to fall evenings. Mechanical Confidence with a new 11/24 furnace, fresh insulation, 7/25 sump pump, 7/25 radon mitigation. Flexible Living Spaces include a finished lower level for gym, office, or guest suite-and a main-level bedroom that flexes as a laundry room / pantry / or office. This isn't just a home-it's a new chapter for a bold year. Elegant. Energized. Move-in ready for what's next.
