Sitting on a .55 acre lot and boasting over 3,200 square feet of above-grade living space, this 5 bedroom 4 full bathroom beauty is not to be missed. Upon entering, you will notice the timeless center-hall colonial floor plan with a living room to your left and formal dining room to your right.

The huge 26'x18' family room provides the perfect gathering space with a wood burning fireplace flanked by built in book shelves, Andersen sliding doors to access the deck, and a full bath. Upstairs is home to 5 bedrooms and 3 more full baths. The master bedroom is sure to impress with ample closet space, a dressing area, and ensuite bath.
