You may have missed this lovely house the first time around. Sellers reluctantly relocating from a home they thought they would be in for years. The lovely paved walkway and open front porch welcome you into this classic colonial which has been updated to have a more open floor plan and has been freshly painted throughout. You'll love the open kitchen/dining room with dark granite counters, double oven, tile backsplash and a roomy breakfast bar ideal for casual meals and conversation. There's convenient access from the garage to the mudroom where the laundry and half bath are located. There's even a desk area close by the kitchen for work-from-home owners. There's golden oak running throughout the first floor and new plush carpeting in the upstairs bedrooms. The updated primary bedroom has its own full bath and walk-in closet. The home is serviced by natural gas and has central air. The finished basement area has a third full bath, new carpeting and a new ceiling. MORE PHOTOS COMING!
