In 2016 Airoom completely gutted and updated the kitchen with all new cabinetry, enormous island and high end appliances truly making this space the heart of the home. The family room, with southern exposure is spacious and bright and showcases custom built-in cabinetry and gas fireplace. The formal living room, with fireplace and dining room, that connects to the kitchen, both offer nicely scaled rooms that builders today often don't provide. The attached garage leads into a mudroom with first floor laundry and walk-in closet making for easy access in and out of the home in inclement weather. The second floor features four bedrooms and three full baths, including the private primary suite with spa bath and two walk-in closets. There is a large home office, located on the landing going up to the second floor, located over the attached garage, that could be converted to a 5th above grade bedroom should that be needed. From the second floor the stairs take you up to the 3rd floor where there is "bonus" office/play space and leads to a flat/rooftop deck that is ready to be finished however the next owner sees fit. The basement showcases a huge rec room with exercise room off to the side, an additional bedroom, full bath, tons of closets and a huge storeroom. The private backyard is fully fenced and offers a serene oasis with bluestone patio and plenty of green space for a playset or trampoline. The location of this home can't be beat with its prime in-town location. Lot size is 70' x 125' and 2019 taxes were: $35,069.73. Photos will be taken on Tuesday, May 11th and showings start Wednesday, May 12. Please call Coco to schedule an appointment.
