As the charming entry sweeps you in, you immediately are surprised by the vaulted ceilings in the spacious living room which is centered around a soaring wood burning fireplace, clad in shiplap and marble. The library serves both as a place to read a book or grab a drink while entertaining in the adjoining family room which is flooded with light and made cozy by a gas fireplace. The dining area is spacious enough for large gatherings and opens to the updated and well-equipped kitchen, with adjacent mudroom and laundry area. Upstairs, the primary suite has a spacious dressing area, an updated bath, and a treasured balcony overlooking the property and providing tranquil sunset views. There are three additional bedrooms, an updated, full bath and the most picturesque, interior balcony where you can grab a moment away. Outside the patio is a favorite gathering spot and overlooks the fully fenced yard with plenty of space to play catch or kick a soccer ball. Getting your steps in, playing fetch with your dog, or simply enjoying the peaceful privacy afforded by Woodland Park Nature Preserve adds to the allure of this home. 1-car garage. Walk to schools, restaurants and the train, this fresh and modern cape is one you shouldn't miss.
