A 4 bedroom main house, adorable guest cottage, and a 3-car garage, all within a lovely neighborhood setting. The 4319 sq ft single-level ranch is bright, meticulously-maintained, and designed for the way people actually live.

The land is the heart of it all. Two acres of flat, open lawn offer room for a pool, a garden, or simply the pleasure of open ground around you. Beyond that, seventeen acres of wooded trails provide privacy, a place to explore, and a quality of quiet that is increasingly rare. Walk out your back door and feel miles away, while still being minutes from everything. Top-rated schools, great community, beautiful neighborhood and the best of the North Shore
