About This Home
As of May 2025This masterfully renovated Colonial will take your breath away! Every inch of this home showcases impeccable craftsmanship that redefines modern luxury. It strikes the perfect balance between an elegant space perfect for entertaining and a functional family home that today’s buyers covet. The newly constructed third floor space and recreation room in the basement bring the home’s finished living space to over 3,600 sf. The primary suite includes an expansive walk-in closet with custom built-in shelving and task lighting. Working from home has never looked so good in this stunning home office guaranteed to brighten anyone’s Monday! The details the current owner meticulously curated inside the home extend to its surroundings. The sun porch sits under the wisteria-clad pergola and overlooks a koi pond with a waterfall. Location is prime as this home is perfectly positioned between The Village and West Park, with access to TWO lake front residents-only parks.
