Full of New England charm, this property boasts classic stone walls, meticulous landscaping, and irresistible curb appeal. The stylish stone façade welcomes you inside, while the detached oversized garage offers excellent potential, featuring generous headroom on the second floor—ideal for a studio, guest suite, or home office. Set on a beautifully landscaped lot, the private backyard is the best of outdoor living, complete with mature perennial gardens, birdsong, and an in-ground pool—perfect for summer relaxation and entertaining. Inside, the four-season porch invites year-round enjoyment with its cozy gas-fired stone fireplace and flagstone flooring. The sun-filled living room features gleaming hardwood floors and a classic brick wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm and inviting space to unwind. The galley kitchen is both functional and charming, with enough room for a dining nook. Three well-sized bedrooms—including one with a cedar closet—share an oversized full bath. The lower level offers additional living space that, with a few updates, could serve as a family room, home gym, or guest area. This home is bursting with potential and ready for your personal touch. Whether you're looking for a year-round residence or a seasonal escape, offering privacy, comfort and location.
