Step inside to a showstopping kitchen appointed with cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, an L-shaped bi-level island with generous seating, a built-in desk, and stainless-steel appliances (approximately 8 years old). The porcelain flooring carries seamlessly through the spacious dining area and sunny breakfast nook, leading to a bright living room where you can enjoy tranquil views of the backyard pond. The main floor offers two inviting bedrooms and a full bath for easy living, while downstairs, a cozy family room with a wood-burning fireplace and a versatile “great room” await. Currently used as a primary suite, the great room could effortlessly serve as a media room, playroom, or home office. You’ll also find two additional bedrooms on this lower level, plus a full bath with a relaxing jetted tub and a utility room offering plenty of storage. Enjoy the comfort of multiple mini-split units, a pellet stove for winter warmth, and organized closets throughout. A wheelchair-accessible ramp adds to the home’s overall convenience. Outside, dual wraparound decks overlook a yard complete with mature apple and plum trees and a pond—perfect for hockey or ice skating in the colder months. Tucked just steps away from the home is a large two-car garage. Embrace the ease of country living without sacrificing proximity to town in this bright, spacious retreat.
