A rare gem in the University area, 88 Knollwood is 1,829 sf of inviting living space set on nearly a half-acre of lush, mature gardens. Step into the main level where a spacious, light-filled Living Room welcomes you with warm hardwood floors, built-in bookshelves, and a cozy wood burning fireplace. The sun-drenched Kitchen, designed for comfort and functionality, includes an enclosed pantry, stainless steel appliances, and a generous double ceramic sink. Just off the Kitchen, a charming side porch is the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee. A Full Bath and Laundry Nook are here as well. The well-appointed Dining Room, perfect for everyday meals or special gatherings, is close to the kitchen for easy serving. Three generously sized Bedrooms overlook the spacious backyard, each offering hardwood floors and plenty of closet space. The shared Full Bath features a double sink, and skylight brings in natural light. Downstairs, the walk-out Lower Level is the perfect Family Room with access through sliding doors to a bluestone patio and the serene backyard. A second room on this level serves as a 4th Bedroom, office, gym, or playroom, or add a Bath and use as an In-Law with separate entrance. The outdoor space provides endless possibilities for relaxing, entertaining, gardening and play. Cross the cedar bridge over a babbling brook to additional recreation space.
