About 55 Lancaster St

They say houses don't have hearts but I do. I've been beating quietly since 1948. Hi My name is Carla. I'm not the biggest, the flashiest, or the newest but I'm real, warm, and full of life. I've seen birthdays in my living room, quiet mornings in my kitchen, & laughter echo through my sunny windows. Every creak in my original hardwood floors tells a story. And now, I'm ready for yours. Come unwind in my sun-filled three-season enclosed porch a peaceful spot to sip your coffee & breathe. On my main level, I offer two comfortable bedrooms, perfect for family or guests. Upstairs, I've saved something special just for you: a private primary bedroom suite, complete with a walk-in closet & half bath, giving your own retreat at the top of the home. Need more room to live & dream? My full basement is a true extension of my heart waiting to be finished for a playroom or studio. Step outside and you'll find a spacious 8' shed with its own 50-amp electrical panel ideal for your tools or next project. But it's not just me it's where I am, too. I belong to a town known for its low property taxes, an excellent school system, & quick access to major highways. I'm also just minutes from all the shops, restaurants, & businesses of Waterbury without actually living in Waterbury. And here's a secret I'm only 30 minutes from the NY State line, opening more doors to work, family, or weekend escapes. So are you ready for something that already feels like yours if yes LET'S HOME.
