Built only 12 years ago, this home is an extra large (3800 square foot including finished basement) custom appointed classic American center hall colonial with stone front and large columned porch. The entry foyer welcomes you with ¾” thick red oak hardwood flooring which runs throughout the first floor. The kitchen is a large eat-in cook’s dream with oak cabinets with brushed nickel solid brass hardware. Top quality Corian countertops and sink, new stainless steel appliances, custom desk cabinetry, and bay window complete this room. Next door is the spacious formal dining room with a beautiful chandelier. Across the hall is the family room with a focal point stone gas push-button fireplace with a raised one-piece blue slate hearth and oversized oak mantel. Sliding pocket French doors separate this room from the formal living room, allowing for large gatherings or cozy evenings by the fire. Guests and family will appreciate the half bath/powder room next to the family room. Just off the family room is a space your family will love – the three season enclosed porch which is warm on a sunny winter day yet allows for long evenings of shady summer dining and lounging behind the protective screens of 7 sliding glass doors. Two steps down lays the stamped concrete patio, large enough for a big garden party. Located right next to a beautiful fish pond. The back yard is the crown of this home – the lot is a large one, over half an acre, with most of it in the back, very level, where kids can play to their heart’s content. The back yard also boasts a south-facing two-terrace organic raised bed vegetable garden. The ornamental pear trees have grown in nicely and there are 80-year-old arborvitae shrubs shielding this back yard from the school grounds. It truly is a natural paradise in your own back yard. When everybody’s tired you can go upstairs and enjoy the 4 spacious bedrooms plus bonus sitting room / office. The hall bath has double Corian sinks, tub/shower combo and extra high decoratively edged tile. The large master bedroom has an en suite bath private bath with double Corian sinks, separate shower and Jacuzzi whirlpool tub. On evenings in good sleeping weather you can turn off the central air and let the whole house fan in the upstairs hall bring in cool fresh air. Every window in the house is an upgrade: energy efficient Andersen brand double-hung tilt-ins for snug fit and easy cleaning. The finished basement gives you another 1300 square feet of living space. Its four main rooms with double thick insulated walls were built as a recording studio, but your family can think of all kinds of uses for them: media room, exercise room, yoga room, office space, rehearsal space, etc. The basement is foam insulated, waterproofed and finished with carpet and Pergo brand laminate flooring. Dimmer switches control lighting and a separate system of thermostat controlled wall heaters and an outside air circulator keep the space very comfortable. The mechanicals room offers built in storage and houses the high efficiency furnace (cooking, heating and hot water are all gas. Water and sewer are public.) The ceilings in this basement began at 11 feet, so the finished space feels spacious and very much a part of the rest of the house. Need more storage? There is a full attic with pull down stairs in the upstairs hallway, and another attic with pull down stairs above the extra large two car attached garage. Many large closets and shelving will hold all your stuff and then some!
