For the first time on the market, this farmhouse colonial was built by its carpenter/builder owner and has been exceptionally maintained. Nestled in a serene cul-de-sac neighborhood, the home blends timeless craftsmanship with modern updates, including a brand new 2024 roof, newer furnace, central A/C, hardwood floors throughout, whole house generator hook-up, and super insulation. The first floor features a spacious eat-in kitchen with an island for extra counter space and storage, a formal dining room with oversized windows, a cozy family room with a wood burning stove/fireplace, and a custom-built home office. Upstairs are three generously sized bedrooms, laundry, and two full baths. The primary suite offers a jacuzzi tub, walk-in shower, linen closet, vaulted ceiling, and his and her closets. An oversized attic provides additional storage. The finished lower level includes a full bath and two large rooms, currently used as an exercise room and a movie room. Outdoor living shines with an extra large deck for gatherings, sunset views, mature landscaping, and peaceful wooded surroundings. Many outbuildings for extra storage needs. With its central yet private location, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special home.
