About this home

Just minutes from town, schools, and daily conveniences, this beautifully updated Colonial offers the perfect blend of comfort, style, and lifestyle. The heart of the home is a stunning open kitchen featuring premium Thermador appliances, a large quartz island, and skylights that bring warmth and natural light into the space. A sophisticated wet bar with wine fridge and coffee station enhances the home's entertaining appeal, while the adjacent family room opens to a spacious deck overlooking the built-in pool-an unexpected luxury this close to town. A formal dining room, living room with fireplace, office space, and updated powder room complete the main level. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers two walk-in closets and a beautifully renovated bath, alongside two additional sun-filled bedrooms and a dedicated laundry room. Hardwood floors throughout, town water and sewer, new central air, tankless hot water heater, and an electric car charger in the garage make this move-in-ready home as practical as it is charming. Picture perfect in every way.
