42 Swain Rd
Description
The main level unfolds with a natural, easy flow. A sunlit living room with a classic bay window anchors the space, drawing in light throughout the day and connecting seamlessly to the kitchen. The kitchen is finished with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and generous cabinetry—with views of the backyard and direct access to the breezeway. On the opposite side of the living room, a dedicated dining room provides added flexibility, complemented by a large closet for convenient storage. A first-floor bedroom is tucked just off the main living area—well-suited for guests, a home office, or flexible use—alongside a full bath finished with slate-inspired tile and a subway tile surround.
Out back, the property opens up in a way that truly sets it apart. Accessed through the breezeway, the expansive yard is designed for both entertaining and everyday use—anchored by a large Trex deck, with a stone patio, raised garden beds, swing set, and storage shed. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms offer comfortable proportions and flexibility. The primary stretches across the front of the home with multiple exposures, a deep closet, and room for a sitting area or workspace. A second bedroom mirrors that versatility, with a shared half bath completing the level.
Recent improvements enhance both comfort and efficiency, including recessed lighting in the living and dining rooms, updated mudroom flooring, a new furnace with tankless hot water, Mitsubishi mini splits, and a Bosch dishwasher. Additional updates include a replaced sump pump (under warranty), microwave, and a new ridge vent. Positioned in a quiet pocket of Wilmington, with direct access to Routes 95, 93, and 3, and close to Burlington’s retail and dining destinations, the home offers a prime location that works as well as it lives.
