Quintessential colonial home with fabulous space for today's living! Large entrance hall opens to huge living room with fireplace and bright southern exposures. The cook's kitchen with expansive island, loads of handsome cabinets and spacious eating area which overlooks (and has direct access to) the tranquil back yard. The butler's pantry offers a wine fridge and much appreciated additional storage and serving space at counter. The formal dining room flows beautifully from the kitchen and also enjoys views of the back patio and yard with easy access via door to patio. The family room is perfectly located directly next to the kitchen offering the much appreciated flow for every day living. The second floor features five bedrooms including a wonderful primary suite with large bedroom, ample closets and a luxurious bathroom with double sinks, linen closet and walk-in shower. Four additional bedrooms (one currently used as an office) and a spacious hall bath are also located on the second floor. The lower level has been finished with thoughtful details - large play room, media area, crafts area, exercise room and large laundry room plus loads of storage. The fully fenced property is gorgeous with lush plantings, private patio for entertaining and relaxing all in a tranquil setting. The large attached garage is a wonderful bonus!
