About This Home
As of July 2023Absolutely beautiful, quintessential custom-built red brick colonial on a quiet lane in an ideal location near schools, parks, tennis courts and train. The spacious floor plan is perfect for today's living with welcoming entrance hall which leads to the library/office with handsome built-ins, elegant living room with fireplace, exquisite dining room and fabulous kitchen with large center island, work station and large eating area - all open to a gorgeous, beautifully scaled family room with custom built-ins which flank the fireplace. Both the kitchen and family room open directly to the fully fenced back yard (83 feet wide) with handsome brick patio with lush landscaping all around. Also on the first floor is a mudroom/laundry room which is adjacent to the large 2 car attached garage. The second floor offers a luxurious primary suite with beautiful bedroom, two walk-in closets and a luxurious primary bath with whirlpool tub, separate shower, water closet and 2 separate vanities. Also on the second floor are three additional bedrooms - one with en suite bath and two which share easy access to a bright hall bath with double vanity and skylight. The fine design found in this home continues to the incredible lower level with large rec room, separate play room with fun 'playhouse' closet, large exercise room, 5th bedroom (or very private office), full bath and huge storage room. Ceiling heights custom and finishes are impressive throughout the house: exquisite hardwood flooring throughout 1st and 2nd floors, gorgeous over-sized windows, beautifully scaled rooms, meticulous maintenance both inside and out, elegant moldings in living and dining rooms and a coveted, hard to find attached garage. The outdoor oasis is tranquil and serene with lush landscaping and large patio. The extra large lot allows for wonderful outdoor entertaining and play. Absolutely beautiful - you'll never move again!
