    Welcome to this beautifully maintained, almost-new home built in 2024, featuring a flexible and thoughtfully designed layout with incredible potential. A brand new paved driveway and new sprinkler system recently added. The oversized third bedroom offers enough space to potentially create a fourth bedroom, office, or additional living area. The attached floor plans are available to help showcase the possibilities. Set on a spacious and private lot, this almost-new home offers the perfect blend of modern comfort, functionality, and timeless design. Filled with natural light, the inviting layout features generously sized bedrooms, stylish bathrooms, and expansive living spaces ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

The septic system features an additional pump/dosing tank that assists with efficient distribution to the leaching fields - a valuable feature often found in higher-end or engineered systems. A standout feature is the elegant foyer chandelier equipped with an automatic lift system, allowing it to be lowered and raised with the touch of a button for easy cleaning and maintenance. Enjoy the peaceful backyard setting with plenty of space to relax or entertain, while being conveniently located near parks, shopping, restaurants, major highways, and Quinnipiac University. A rare opportunity to own a move-in ready custom home in the sought-after Mount Carmel/Sleeping Giant area.
