This one really checks ALL the boxes!! Set in the picturesque Taunton neighborhood just minutes from Newtown's historic town center, this sprawling ranch offers the most desirable attributes that the modern homebuyer seeks: convenient one-level living, a flowing open floor plan, natural light throughout, gleaming wide-plank hardwoods, granite counters, central air, stainless steel appliances... and that's just the inside!! Stepping out to the back, you'll enjoy a lush green yard, blooming with pachysandras, limelight hydrangeas, flowering bushes, and mature trees to provide you both beauty and privacy. Enjoy the natural sights and sounds from your patio or even from your windows in the primary bedroom suite, and dog-lovers can let the pup run free with an electric fence in the back. The owners kept and restored this home with delicate care, including a new roof, new and upgraded electrical panel, fresh landscaping, and tasteful bathroom remodeling. With an attached garage, a convenient office/den separated from the bedroom hallway, and a large finished basement space for abundant storage, this home really has a lot to offer. NOTE: To allow adequate time for showings and the open house, no offers will be reviewed or selected until Tuesday, 8/29 at 9:00am.
