Thoughtfully expanded and fully reimagined, this 4 bed, 3 bath Colonial offers a distinctive, design-forward layout across multiple levels. The main floor unfolds with an open living and dining area, enhanced by recessed lighting and seamless flow into a well-appointed kitchen with granite surfaces, stainless appliances, and abundant cabinetry.
