About This Home
As of May 2020It’s Grand to live on Grand! I'm a Dutch Colonial home on the edge of the prestigious Waterbury neighborhood and have stood the test of time for nearly a century. Having just undergone an extensive and amazing overhaul, I feel like new but have the charm and character of a historic home. With 3 bedrooms, one and a half baths, my updates include several brand new things: roof, gutters, windows, siding, furnace, water heater, updated electric panel and plumbing, a new oversized 2-car garage, and a completely updated interior with new hardwood flooring on the main floor. Convenient location--with easy access to interstate, dining, shopping—you can be anywhere in a matter of minutes! Hannawalt, Merrill, and Roosevelt schools.
