    This breathtakingly-renovated colonial home features 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms spread over 1,471 sqft. The beautiful front entryway leads you to a comfortable living room with German-schmear wood-burning fireplace and abundant natural light. As you walk into the remodeled kitchen, you will see stainless steel appliances, granite counters, soft-close cabinets, and a custom pantry. Off the kitchen, you will find a half bathroom and mudroom with built-in storage. The picturesque dining room is surrounded by large windows with access to a relaxing screen porch oasis. You will notice the attention to detail and craftsmanship at every turn with hardwood floors, crown molding, arches, and high-end fixtures throughout. All 3 charming bedrooms are located on the 2nd floor, with spacious closets and fresh paint. The upstairs full bathroom was remodeled in 2022 with subway tile shower, penny tile floor, shiplap walls, and a deep-soaking tub. The modern-industrial finished basement speaks for itself, while the utility room features new mechanicals and a clean washer/dryer setup. A spacious garage accommodates 2 full-sized vehicles with room for tools and recreation equipment. An impressive overhead garage loft space offers tons of additional storage. This home is located in a gorgeous neighborhood with a park across the street. Commuter trains and freeways are close by. Wonderful shopping, dining, and beaches are only minutes away.
