About This Home

As of October 2020

49 Flat Swamp is a home to get excited about. This colonial style house with a contemporary flair boasts vaulted ceilings in the living, family and dining room. Newly refinished hardwoods are throughout the entire main level along with fresh neutral paint making the 2,552 above grade sq ft look extremely open and airy. The kitchen with an island, eat in area and family room are all inclusive to each other providing the open layout that everyone is looking for. Natural light shines through this space as the family room offers sky lights along with the kitchen having large sliding doors leading to the patio and deck with a pergola. If privacy is preferred, the formal living room with modern upgrades will provide a cozy feel for a smaller gathering. Upstairs you will find the master suite along with 2 other spacious bedrooms, all newly carpeted. And if more space is needed, there is an additional 735 sq ft of finished bonus space in the basement which would be convenient for an office, gym or at home theater. The 3.49 acre lot is completely level featuring a courtyard and perennials that are very low maintenance leaving you with an easy lawn care routine. Don't worry that you don't see a pool, this yard is practically begging for it. This property is perfectly treed along the perimeter offering solitude but yet is wide open in the middle. Refreshing and serene, we promise you that.
