About This Home

As of August 2023

For those drawn to the diverse architectural beauty and stroll-everywhere convenience
of the Western Section, yet prefer the ease of a modern floor plan and reliability of
newer construction, this custom-built corner colonial is a must-see. Carefully tended to
by the original owners, the house is in exemplary condition inside and out. Even the
garage is freshly painted, both fireplaces were recently cleaned and a generator is
ready to go, if ever needed. Aesthetically, it is even more appealing starting with the
grand foyer, which gives way to a coffered, holiday-ready dining room and a living room
with expertly-crafted, wood built-ins. Even rooms that are cozier in size feel lavish due
to 9-ft ceilings edged with substantial crown molding. The kitchen encourages everyone
to lend a hand with a sprawling island, double dishwashers and a 48” Thermador range.
Professional-sized refrigeration and walk-in storage in the sun-drenched butler’s pantry
let you stay fully stocked and ready to entertain on a whim. Oak floors continue up 2
staircases leading to 5 bedrooms. All 4 full bathrooms, including the recently renovated
shared bath and the elegant main bath, sport genuine marble and classic materials that
feel forever fresh. While the finished basement provides quiet spots for work, it is
dedicated to leisure when the day is done with ample space for exercise or play, a fully
equipped media room and wine storage with provenance, pulled from an award-winning
restaurant. All the pleasures of town - from playing fields to cultural offerings to fine
dining - are within a mile of this .34-acre property.
