It is crisp, bright, fresh & ready to move right into! Located in a desirable neighborhood within a stroll to the center of town & metro north! Current homeowner has totally added excellent & quality upgrades. Front to back living room & family room offers expansive living space, each with a wood burning fireplaces. The dining room with bow window opens to the remodeled kitchen with wooden cabinetry, granite countertops, tile backsplash and stainless steel appliances. The family room opens to a very cool deck with a unique tree top styled gazebo, perfect for spring, summer & fall entertaining! Enjoy serene views from the deck & gazebo situated on almost a half-acre of private property. There are four bedrooms & three renovated bathrooms with upscale modern deep tubs & fixtures. The bedroom on the first floor has its own bath & could easily become a full master, bedroom/au pair/ in- law suite with a few creative simple changes. There is a possibility of adding a half bath in this area. New gleaming hardwood floors throughout the first level. The lower level allows for additional storage. It would be a worthwhile investment to finish the lower level into livable space. This is a must see sought after neighborhood!
