Welcome to 297 N Poverty Road, a home lovingly maintained by its original owners for nearly 45 years. Set on a beautiful level lot with a private, tree-lined backyard, this property offers a peaceful setting just minutes from I-84, shopping, restaurants, schools, and everything Southbury has to offer. The highlight of the home is the stunning screened-in porch-a true extension of the living space and the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee, unwind after a long day, or entertain while overlooking the serene backyard surrounded by nature. Inside, you'll find generously sized rooms throughout, including a welcoming family room with a gas fireplace, spacious eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, and formal living room. A main-level bedroom offers flexibility for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living, while a separate laundry room adds everyday convenience. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with a walk-in shower. The partially finished lower level with new carpeting provides additional living space, while the unfinished area offers abundant storage. Completing the home is a two-car garage connected by a charming breezeway. Lovingly cared for, beautifully maintained, and ideally located, this is a rare opportunity to own a home offering timeless charm, exceptional space, and peaceful outdoor living.
