As of December 2025

Nestled on a wooded cul-de-sac in the serene Forest Hills subdivision, this stunning brick Colonial has been meticulously renovated in 2020, seamlessly blending timeless elegance with modern luxury. Spanning over 3,000 square feet across three finished levels, the home offers 4 spacious bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, providing ample space for both relaxation and entertaining.

The living room welcomes you with soaring vaulted ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, and glamorous chandeliers, creating an impressive focal point for gatherings. Adjacent, the den features matching wainscoting and abundant natural light, offering a distinguished space for work or leisure. The chef-inspired kitchen is a showpiece, complete with stainless steel appliances, double ovens, an induction cooktop, sparkling quartz countertops, and an expansive island perfect for casual dining or culinary creations. A butler’s pantry with a wine cooler and charming window seat enhances functionality, while the dining area, with a sliding glass door leading to the balcony, provides a seamless indoor-outdoor connection for entertaining or grilling. Retreat to the main-level primary suite, a private haven with a walk-in closet and a luxurious en-suite bath featuring upgraded countertops with modern vessel sinks, and a tiled tub/shower surround accented by marble-look tile and mosaic inlay. Upstairs, one bedroom enjoys an en-suite bath, while the other two share a beautifully updated full hall bath.
The fully finished basement expands the home’s living and entertaining options, offering an expansive family room with a second brick fireplace and sliding glass access to the backyard. A recreation area with a granite wet bar and mini refrigerator is perfect for entertaining or cozy movie nights. The lower level also includes a laundry room and a third full bath.
Outside, the property sits on a generous two-acre lot backing to lush parkland and trees, offering a tranquil escape. The balcony provides picturesque views, and the included additional two-acre lot expands the total property to four acres. With an attached two-car garage and ample driveway parking, convenience and accessibility are unmatched.
