Description

Welcome to our charming 4-bedroom 2.5 bath colonial on 2.5 acres of land and set far back off of the road for privacy. Many, many updates including a newer walkway, fresh paint, new flooring in almost every room, state of the art lighting and a gorgeous remodeled main bath on the upper level. Please excuse the photos of the master bath as we are still in the process of painting and re-hanging the closet doors. 'A work in progress'. We didn't want anyone to miss the layout and spaciousness. The master...Welcome to our charming 4-bedroom 2.5 bath colonial on 2.5 acres of land and set far back off of the road for privacy. Many, many updates including a newer walkway, fresh paint, new flooring in almost every room, state of the art lighting and a gorgeous remodeled main bath on the upper level. Please excuse the photos of the master bath as we are still in the process of painting and re-hanging the closet doors. 'A work in progress'. We didn't want anyone to miss the layout and spaciousness. The master suite and 3 additional bedrooms are oversized with 9 foot ceilings for a grand, light and airy appeal and ready for you to enjoy with your family. You can access the back deck from the kitchen for seasonal entertaining and spread out to the amazing back yard. You can see from the firepit set up - this yard has seen many gatherings and created memories and it's ready for yours! The laundry room is conveniently located on the main floor and you'll note there is a very large pantry for all of your shopping & storage needs. Our roof is approximately 5 years young. Furnace is a bit older but working fine. The trampoline stays as does the extra fridge in the garage - and feel free to ask about other items you might be interested in as well. Located just moments from i84, downtown Sandy Hook and it's lovely restaurants, Caraluzzi's Market & the Big Y for some of the friendliest faces and freshest food you can buy!
