Welcome to this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath, colonial home nestled in one of the area’s most highly desirable communities. Lovingly owned by the same family for 50 years, this classic home sits on a private, flat and handsomely landscaped lot backing to peaceful woods—offering both charm and tranquility. Step inside to find stunning hardwood floors throughout, solid wood six-panel doors, and gracious formal living and dining rooms adorned with plantation shutters. The spacious living room and cozy family room each feature a fireplace, while French doors from the family room open to a screened-in porch with a slate floor that spans nearly the full length of the home—perfect for relaxing or entertaining while overlooking the lush, tree-lined backyard. The newly renovated kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring 40” cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a layout designed for everyday living and entertaining. A convenient first-floor laundry room adds to the home's practicality. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms and two updated full baths. The primary suite offers a private en suite bath with tasteful tile accents, while the hall bath features a modern vanity and updated finishes. The lower-level rec room provides even more living and or entertaining space with versatility and a tremendous about of storage space finishing off this lower level. Some additional upgrades-windows have been replaced throughout, shutters freshly painted, new hot water heater, and new French drain with sump pump in lower level. Enjoy a community with sidewalks and access to walking paths. Ideally located near shopping, restaurants, parks, and more—this is truly a classic colonial in a picture-perfect setting. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a cherished home in an exceptional location!
