Sunlight filters through energy-efficient dual-pane windows — including premium Andersen windows — creating a cheerful, quiet interior while helping reduce utility costs. The updated kitchen is a chef’s delight with quartz countertops, a tumbled-tile backsplash, built-in gas cooktop and a built-in self-cleaning oven. A generous work island centers the space and opens to an eating area, where sliding glass doors lead to a private deck overlooking serene hilltop views — perfect for morning coffee or evening entertaining. The owner’s suite offers privacy and convenience with mirrored wardrobe storage and a recently remodeled bathroom. Downstairs, a spacious family room provides flexible living with direct access to a landscaped backyard, ideal for indoor-outdoor living or play. An additional downstairs bedroom and full bath make a comfortable home office, guest suite, or au pair quarters. The oversized attached garage includes abundant storage and there’s clear potential to expand or reconfigure spaces to suit your needs. Located minutes from transportation routes, this home blends everyday convenience with quiet suburban charm.
