This gracious 1940's classic colonial epitomizes the thoughtful combination of period detail with upgrades for today's living style. From the welcoming entry with its handsome side staircase to the light filled living room and dining room with gleaming hardwoods this house pleases with its easy flow. The updated eat in kitchen is both stylish and functional providing ample work space, cabinetry and storage. Step into a surprise! Running the length of the rear of the house is the generously sized great room with a vaulted ceiling, skylights, built in shelving and sliding glass doors opening to the patio and private yard. Completing this floor is an adjacent den/office with raised panel walls providing the perfect space for some quiet and privacy. Upstairs you will find a spacious primary suite with ample closets and a newly redesigned (never used) bathroom. Four additional bedrooms, two full baths and a laundry area complete this level. Lower level features finished space with natural light for rec room/gym, walk in cedar closet and ample storage. This well maintained home features multiple zones of heat/ac, replacement windows and a brand new roof (7 days). Located in a lovely tree lined neighborhood just steps from green spaces, walking paths and city parks its an easy stroll to the farmer's market, local shops, and restaurants.
