    What's special

    Stunning fireplaceNewly expanded deckYear-round privacyLevel lotGenerous custom closet spaceSecond-floor laundryBeautifully refinished hardwood floors
    Welcome to 281 W Cedar St! This spacious and well-maintained 4-bedroom colonial built in 2000 is located in the desirable West Norwalk neighborhood. The main level offers an open and inviting layout, with the kitchen, dining, and living areas seamlessly flowing together. Beautifully refinished hardwood floors, a stunning fireplace, and sliding glass doors to the newly expanded deck create a warm and functional space, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The level lot is partly cleared and landscaped, with light woods for year-round privacy. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a true retreat, featuring a tray ceiling, generous custom closet space, and a large bathroom with both a whirlpool tub and separate shower. Three additional bedrooms, a hall bath, and a convenient second-floor laundry complete the level. No trips up and down the stairs with your laundry basket. Recent updates add peace of mind, including a new hot water heater, a replaced AC unit, and a rewired HVAC system designed to support a heat pump for greater efficiency and reduced costs. Additional features include central air with humidifier, public water and sewer, an attached two-car garage, and abundant storage with a shed, floored attic, and full unfinished basement. Currently being used as a home gym, the basement provides a potential value-add opportunity to the home should you decide to finish it. Living here also means enjoying everything Norwalk has to offer: beaches, marinas, and parks along Long Island Sound, the Maritime Aquarium, Stepping Stones Museum, the annual Oyster Festival, and the original Stew Leonard's. Plus, the brand-new Wegman's is just minutes away, along with SoNo's restaurants, nightlife, and the upscale SoNo Collection mall. Conveniently located near Stamford, with an easy commute into Manhattan.
