About this home

This beautifully updated Victorian is a must see! Set back from the street with a circular drive, this home offers privacy you will adore. Once inside, you will be captivated by the gorgeous 9ft ceilings, oversized windows, freshly painted interior and other period details. The custom foyer features built-ins; perfect for the NE weather. A dazzling kitchen with 10ft island, granite counters, newer appliances and tons of storage is truly a chef’s dream! This house has all the space you need with 4 beds on the 2nd floor, and an optional main suite plus 2 bonus rooms (home office, workout space, play area) on the 3rd floor. A full bath on each floor and hardwood floors throughout, many of which were recently refinished. Don't miss the large professionally landscaped lot, garage and plenty of parking - even an outlet to charge your EV! Enjoy evenings on the porch or expansive deck and watch the most amazing sunsets overlooking Bear Hill GC. Robin Hood School and 1 mi to the commuter rail.
