About This Home
As of December 2020Impeccably maintained and updated, this spacious center hall colonial is move-in ready. While classic in design, it is not lacking in modern amenities including a kitchen which opens to a breakfast and family room with windows across the entire back of the house. French doors open to the private fenced yard with an oversized stone terrace. A formal living room with fireplace and a dining room complete a first floor with great circular flow. Upstairs, the master suite is a real treat with its vaulted & beamed ceiling, modern gas fireplace, huge walk-in closet and master bath with two sinks, jetted tub & separate shower. Three other generously sized bedrooms and a remodeled hall bath complete the second floor. Finished lower level and a location within walking distance of Metro North train & Holmes School make this home the perfect choice!
