About This Home

As of June 2019

Looking for privacy, land, and luxurious living? This immaculate, custom built home located on over 10 acres of land in Townsend won't disappoint! Built as the Sellers "Dream Home" this one-of-a-kind Colonial is loaded with top shelf selections and demonstrates careful craftsmanship and pride of ownership throughout. Hidden away on a very private farm setting backing to a pond, you access the home via a private drive winding to the back of the property. Step onto a gracious front porch with traditional plantation columns and enter through ornate leaded glass door into a lovely foyer with open staircase and gleaming red oak hardwoods, which continue throughout the first floor. The large living room area, to the left, showcases tons of natural light, a ceiling fan, a wood burning stove with attractive granite surround, recessed lighting, and is open to a charming breakfast area with breathtaking views of rear yard and pond through French sliders. The bright kitchen boasts high-quality cherry cabinetry, great workspaces, two lazy-Susans, a large pantry, double ceramic sink, and a knee wall to the breakfast area. The Dining room has a chair railing and offers ample room for more formal gatherings. Main floor also offers a powder room, laundry/mud room off the kitchen and access to a huge, two-car oversized garage with storage galore. Upstairs, the master suite, flooded with light, has a vaulted ceiling, a ceiling fan, and an enormous walk-in closet with large bump-out. Relax in the Neptune-Jetted tub in the master en suite bath, which also offers a 4-foot modular shower with sit-down shelf, a dual vanity and a Toto toilet. Two other generously-sized bedrooms have great lighting, ceiling fans and large closets. The fourth bedroom or bonus room is perfect for a second floor family room and is equipped with built-in desk areas, a walk-in closet, and laundry hookups. The second floor, carpeted through the hall and bonus room with luxurious taupe berber, also has a large hall bath with dual vanity and a deep linen closet. There is a quaint sitting area at the top of the stairs allowing for quiet, private moments with serene view onto the farm. Home is equipped with Anderson windows and cordless Levolor cellular blinds throughout. The unfinished basement has more room for storage and workspace and walk-out access through a Bilco door. The high basement ceilings offer potential to finish an area if desired. Other great features of this home include: 2-zone heating and air conditioning (Armstrong HE propane furnace and heat-pump), HE propane hot water heater, 400 Amp electric service, extensive recessed lighting, wired network, Oversized (27x20) garage with storage bump out, on site well with water filtration and on site septic.
