About This Home

As of March 2023

Welcome home to this beautiful and expansive four bedroom colonial that has everything you could want and more! Walking inside the front door you are greeted by beautiful hardwood floors and a freshly painted interior. On the left is a large living room with windows on every side for all-day natural light. On the right is the formal dining room which connects to the updated kitchen with a spacious breakfast area. Off the kitchen is the great room/family room with vaulted ceilings, a large bay window, and a gorgeous fireplace. Walk through the french doors to the sun room where you can watch the sun rise over the trees or the snow falling in the winter. Upstairs is the primary bedroom suite, complete with walk-in closet and a full bathroom. Three additional large bedrooms round out the upstairs with another full bathroom. But wait there's more! Downstairs is the partially finished basement, including a half bath, kitchenette, tons of storage space, and sliding doors that lead right into the private backyard. The Tesla solar panels power the entire house and the back-up generators so you are never out of power. And don't forget to check out the three car garage! Located on a cul-du-sac with over 2 acres of land, this property is perfect for those looking for peace and quiet, yet has plenty of shopping and restaurants less than 10 minutes away. This home really has everything - you have to see it to believe it. Schedule your showing today!
