About this home

Charming colonial home blending period character with thoughtful updates, tucked away on a quiet street. Freshly painted with high ceilings on the main level, the traditional floor plan features a spacious kitchen with gas range, quartz countertops, soft-close cabinetry and a slider to the 16x15 composite deck—perfect for easy indoor/outdoor entertaining. The dining and living rooms retain classic details, including a built-in corner cabinet, while a stained-glass stairwell window adds a colorful touch of vintage charm. Upstairs are 3 generously sized bedrooms, each with a cedar-lined closet, and a full bath. Outside, the fenced yard offers room for pets, play and summer fun around the inground pool. A heated finished room in the basement provides flexible bonus space for crafts, a TV room, home gym or casual hangout. Hardwood flooring can be found throughout much of the home. A welcoming home with character, comfortable living spaces and a backyard ready to enjoy!
