About This Home

This stunning 5-bedroom Colonial sits on beautifully landscaped grounds and has been meticulously updated by the current owner. The exterior boasts HardiePlank, brick, stone accents, and a welcoming front porch. A charming stone-and-pebble path, complete with a fountain, leads to the entryway. Inside, a dramatic two-story foyer and sweeping staircase set the tone. The kitchen features cherry cabinetry, granite island, and stainless steel appliances, flowing into a vaulted family room with wood floors and a cozy fireplace. The game room offers a bar, wood floors, fireplace, and sweeping views of the property. Formal living and dining rooms showcase dentil moldings and hardwoods. Upstairs, all bedrooms are generously sized with ample closets, including the primary suite with serene backyard views and a large, updated bath. The finished lower level offers additional living space. The backyard is a true retreat with a patio, outdoor kitchen, pool/spa, and lush plantings an entertainer's dream. Countless upgrades make this home a must-see!
