About this home

Welcome to this stylish Colonial perched atop a tree-lined hill, on a quiet, private road in a prime location! This welcoming home offers a rare blend of privacy and convenience, minutes from shops, dining, transit, and highways. The sunny 3-season sun porch ushers you into the open, light-filled living area that flows from dining nook into the fully remodeled kitchen with quartz counters, stylish cabinetry, and Samsung stainless appliances. The 1st floor also features a thoughtfully re-designed full bath, and new laundry room with built-ins and added touches for modern convenience. Wood-look porcelain tile spans the main level, while the 2nd level showcases hardwoods across all 3 bedrooms and another beautifully updated full bath. Step outside to a maintenance-free composite deck overlooking the fenced backyard, where mature trees create a serene retreat. A newly paved 4-car driveway plus recent key system upgrades complete this move-in ready gem! This is the one!
