About This Home

As of August 2025

Better than new and completely reimagined by a local designer, this stunning 4-bedroom Colonial offers the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and functionality. Set on a beautifully manicured one-acre lot, this home welcomes you with soaring 9-foot ceilings and a flexible floor plan designed to suit every lifestyle. The heart of the home is a gourmet kitchen featuring a large island-ideal for gatherings and everyday living. Just off the kitchen, a swanky custom bar opens to a stylish covered porch, creating the ultimate indoor-outdoor entertaining space. Step outside to lush gardens and a cozy outdoor fireplace, perfect for hosting friends or enjoying quiet evenings under the stars. Upstairs, all four bedrooms offer generous space, including a luxurious primary suite with its own fireplace, an oversized walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath. A bonus room on the second level can easily serve as a fifth bedroom, office, or gym-endless possibilities! The partially finished third floor provides a quiet office retreat along with ample storage space offering even more flexibility for work-from-home. But wait, the finished lower level adds even more space to play, complete with a bath for convenience. Every inch of this home is move-in ready and beautifully appointed-truly a must-see property that stands out from the rest.
