About This Home
As of February 2018If you like surprises; this house is for you! Set back off the road, this over sized ranch has over 3200 square feet of living space on the main floor alone. You will love the fact that you are within minutes from every convenience on Route One yet; your two acres of land allow you to feel that you are in your own private country oasis. Lovingly maintained, this three bedroom house can easily be used as an in-law situation. Hardwood floors throughout, four full bathrooms, central air, large family room with vaulted ceilings and a full bath, large working kitchen with granite counters and plenty of cabinet space and the list goes on! New home owners will love the abundant extra space that the full basement offers (another 3200 square feet) in addition to the possibilities of a walk up attic. Each bedroom is over sized with very good sized closets and hardwood floors. The master bedroom has the convenience of full size laundry, plenty of closets and a full bath. There is plenty of space for everyone with a formal living room with fireplace, dining room and study yet these rooms can easily be adapted for different uses for the new home owner. Enjoy the feel of the outdoors as you sit in your three season porch which is off of the family room. There are two additional decks for entertaining and you will love that security of a fenced in yard. Located in the award winning Amity Regional School system, this house is worth the look! Easy to show; come take a look!
