Its classic open floor plan includes a kitchen and family room designed for engaging living. The ground-floor bedroom or office, outfitted with French doors and a large closet, along with a full first floor bath with roll-in shower, caters to individuals with mobility needs and is an ideal space for aging in place. The formal dining room is enhanced by custom woodwork, contributing to its sophistication. The family room's cathedral ceiling imparts a sense of openness and lightness. Upstairs, four ample bedrooms offer abundant closet space, alongside two full bathrooms, one of which is an en-suite in the primary bedroom. The basement features two study areas and a playroom, in addition to a sizable unfinished storage space. The house boasts a recent Rinnai on-demand hot water heater and an updated boiler, both utilizing natural gas. Heat pumps offer summer cooling and extra warmth in winter. Windows have been replaced with double-pane, insulated, fold-in versions by Mathews Brothers. The garage, with a two-vehicle capacity, includes modern door openers, while the kitchen has been updated with granite counters and stainless appliances. The private property, almost three-quarters of an acre, is tucked away among the trees. This beautiful home is tucked away in this quiet enclave, yet it is only minutes from all of the hospitals, universities and schools in the area. This is a must see!
