Directly off the family room leading to the backyard is a three seasons enclosed porch ideal for relaxing and unwinding during the warmer months with your beverage of choice and a favorite read. The separate dining room offers great space for entertaining and segues to the all white cook's kitchen. Boasting ample cabinets and a breakfast area featuring a lovely picturesque modern take on an Atrium window, providing scenic views of the English garden. The bright kitchen is sure to please those that enjoy spending time perfecting their culinary skills, not to mention the breakfast area serves as flex space for a homework area or a remote office. The second floor has four bedrooms including the serene primary suite with high ceilings, a walk-in closet and sizable designated bathroom. The laundry area is conveniently located on the 2nd floor as well. The lower level offers additional living space, including a large recreation room,with higher ceilings and plenty of room to serve multiple functions, including a 2nd family room, play area /or exercise room, Adjoining the room is an unfinished area (prime untapped space) that is ready for your finishing touches....plus there is ample storage in the mechanical room-area that houses a recently replaced high efficiency boiler and hot water heater system. Rounding out this delightful home is the professionally landscaped fenced-in, private backyard filled with seasonal blooming perennials, making for a gardener's delight. The two car garage off the alley completes this special offering. This is a block party kind of street, where kids play on the sidewalks & neighbors converse while walking their dogs. Pride of ownership abounds, an outstanding property that you will want to call home.
