About This Home

If you've been searching for RANCH-LIKE LIVING with a BREATHTAKING BACKYARD, this is it! Located in desirable Northfield where you get more space to spread out, this timeless Colonial home is on 1.1 acres of land with a serene backyard nestled beneath a canopy of towering oak trees. A long drive leads to an expansive parking court allowing guests to park with ease. Upon entering, you'll notice the dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows filling the home with natural light, and the charming moldings and millwork which create a comfortable atmosphere. The impressive foyer has sweeping backyard views, and overlooks the private brick patio - an idyllic setting for your morning coffee or entertaining on warm summer evenings. You'll want to host holiday gatherings in the elegant living room with a wood-burning fireplace and sun-filled bay window, and celebrate your special occasion dinners in the spacious dining room. Unwind with family in the inviting family room, or up the ante at the game table. For everyday living, the handsome wood-paneled study with a roaring fireplace is an ideal home office or library/den. The eat-in kitchen with plenty of pantry storage is adjacent to the laundry/mudroom, as well as the powder room. The attached two-car garage has deep built-in shelving to store everything you need, extra shelving along the side, and you can still park your two SUVs inside! The highly sought-after 1st-floor primary suite offers the ease and comfort of single-level living, while 2 extra-large upstairs bedrooms with spacious walk-in closets and a shared full bath provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests. Ideally located near Blue Ribbon Award-winning Sunset Ridge School, parks, shopping, dining, and transportation, this exceptional home offers the serenity of estate-style living with every convenience just moments away.
