About This Home

As of October 2025

You won't find many homes like 23 Bennett Ave! Extensively renovated, this property seamlessly blends modern luxury with timeless vintage charm. The kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring a large custom island, quartz countertops, convection microwave, and wine fridge. Just off the kitchen, a cozy sitting area with a wood stove offers direct access to the backyard and garage. The den, with its antique doors and propane fireplace, adds warmth, character, and optional privacy. A spacious dining area flows into the living room, highlighted by a second propane fireplace with a custom live-edge mantel and hearth. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms, two full baths, and a convenient laundry room. The private primary suite is a retreat of its own offering a walk-in closet, small balcony overlooking the backyard, and a spa-inspired bath with steam shower, sauna, and soaking tub. The attached garage provides direct entry to the home and ample storage space. With two propane fireplaces, three heat pumps, wood stove, and oil HWBB heat, this home offers versatile, year-round comfort. The oversized backyard features a wide open lawn, multiple gardens, and wooded privacy along the back where Whitten Brook runs through the lot. Combining the convenience of in-town living with space and seclusion, this property is truly unique. An inviting deck with hot tub completes the picture making this a one-of-a-kind home that's move-in ready and designed to impress.
