Just one block away from Beverly Rd sits this brick colonial with a welcoming front porch, refinished hardwood floors and open plan throughout the main floor. The new windows invite natural light to brighten the spaces while a remote-controlled gas fireplace warms the living room, nestled between built ins. A chef’s- delight kitchen, open to the dining room, features stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, copper farmhouse sink, granite countertops, white ceramic backsplash and ample cabinetry with soft-close drawers and doors. Enjoy the adjacent multi-purpose den near the two-year-old main floor bath and laundry. Access the resurfaced deck and level rear yard from here. Upstairs you’ll find three bedrooms and an updated bath with soaking tub and granite-topped vanity. The third floor is finished with LVP flooring and its own split system for HVAC. New landscaping features perennial plantings, hydrangeas, grasses, and boxwoods.
