About This Home

As of October 2022

Architectural beauty, a fine colonial with recent addition of an attached two-storied in-law suite. Custom details define this 3,838 square feet luxury house situated on a .42 acre extensively landscaped homesite in a cul-de-sac in Falls Orchard offering an outdoor sprinkler system, a party-sized deck extending the length of the home, sun and shade patios, outdoor stone patio with firepit, gardens, two separate two car garages (4 cars), and a private level fully fenced backyard with custom grey wood and iron gates adding further elegance. Curved and soft lines add to the excitement as you enter the foyer giving way to an open floorplan boasting gorgeous refinished hardwoods, upgraded windows and doors, a central vac system, custom window treatments, accented by beautiful crown moldings and trim. Richly detailed, this home features a spacious living room, followed by a formal dining room accentuated by chair rail trim and wainscoting, and French doors opening to the deck, both ready for casual and formal entertaining. The beautifully maintained and upgraded home welcomes you to its relaxing family room displaying a brick surround wood burning fireplace, easy access to deck, and just steps away from the kitchen. Awaiting your culinary masterpieces, the light-filled chef's kitchen is equipped with a convenient work station, 42" raised panel cherry cabinetry, granite counters, a center island, high-end mostly new stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast room with deck access framing an outdoor view. Private views of the trees emanate from the owner's suite presenting black out shades, a sitting room brightened by skylights, a walk-in closet, and a luxe bath with an extended vanity, a glass enclosed shower, and custom tile work. Three other full bathrooms have been completely remodeled recently along with the entire basement wood-flooring. A memorable place in this home is found in the entertaining lower level flaunting a rec room and a walkout to the backyard. The two-story in-law suite hosts several private entry ways, a living room, a kitchenette, a bedroom, a full bath, separate laundry, and access to the fenced yard. This unit with its independent access that can become a convenient home office. Recent upgrades include all bathrooms remodeled, whole house hardwood floor re-finished and new LVP flooring in the basement, custom shades, a full security system with doors and windows sensors, new kitchen appliances, new AC system, new additional two car garage, and new fenced-in veg/flower gardens with swathe of flowering trees.
