About This Home
As of November 2016"You had me at Hello!" is exactly how you will feel upon entering 5 Herbert Dr. This lovely home has so much to offer; great curb appeal, great location with easy access to major thoroughfares but yet you will experience the feeling of being away from it all when you realize you have the best lot in the community! (check out the bird's eye view picture). Your very private backyard, all fenced in and backing onto a County Park, contains a humongous deck, a koi pond, a cobblestone patio and a collection of mature trees and flowery shrubs. The interior is as pleasing with 4 spacious bedrooms with ample storage, a newer kitchen all done up with oak cabinets, granite counter tops and a tile backsplash and with an access to the garage. You will of course notice the wood burning fireplace,the hardwood floors, brand new carpet, the freshly painted full basement, the oversize driveway, the formal dining room and the fact that all bedrooms as well as the dining room and kitchen are equipped with a ceiling fan. Roof is 10 years old and water heater was replaced in 2010. The icing on the cake is that ALL APPLIANCES are included as well as a one-year Home Warranty. Sellers are motivated and curious to meet the future owners of this great property which has been a safe haven for them for 3 generations! Schedule your showing NOW before you miss out on a great deal!
