This deceivingly large home sits on a quiet street and deep lot, offering tranquil views. The foyer opens to a spacious sun-filled fireplaced living room, adjacent formal dining room and a kitchen with separate dining area that overlooks the large family room. A bright office/guest bedroom and powder room completes the first floor. There are 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a side-by-side laundry closet and attic access on the second level. Additionally, there is a bonus space that once was a bedroom that could easily be reconfigured to again reclaim that title. The basement offers a finished recreation/playroom with high ceilings and fireplace. Double deep, expanded direct-entry 2-car garage opens to the unfinished section/perfect for a future mudroom. Bring your vision and your contractor to help make this hidden diamond YOUR DREAM HOME!
