About This Home

As of June 2025

Built in 1953 and meticulously maintained, this 4 BR, 2.1 BA home combines the classic floorplan of a Colonial with the best features of the Mid-century modern era! From the moment you enter into the inviting foyer, you'll feel right at home. The first level showcases gracious, sun-filled living spaces, including a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace and large picture window, a formal dining room perfect for entertaining, a cozy breakfast room, and a well-appointed kitchen. A first-floor family room adds comfort and flexibility, while a main-level bedroom-currently used as an office-offers convenience and versatility. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms and two full baths. The expansive Primary bedroom presents an exciting opportunity! By simply opening up a doorway from the second upstairs bath, you can instantly create a luxurious Primary suite, complete with a large bath and a walk-in closet fit for the most fashion-forward! Throughout the home, insane amounts of closet space provide ample storage, and hardwood floors are waiting to be uncovered beneath the carpet. The lower level features a spacious Rec Room with a fireplace, an oversized laundry room, a storage room, and a mechanicals room. An additional smaller closet on the lower level is just waiting to be transformed into the perfect wine cellar! A generous backyard and a 2-car garage complete this perfect picture. Ideally located near restaurants, schools, and grocery stores, this meticulously cared-for home blends classic elegance with mid-century modern cool. Don't miss your chance to make it yours!
