About this home

Light-filled and classic this handsome 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath colonial blends traditional charm with modern updates and space for everyone. A welcoming entry leads to generous living spaces designed for everyday life and comfortable entertainment. The heart of this home is a beautifully remodeled kitchen (2021) that pairs contemporary finishes and thoughtful storage with easy flow to the dining and living areas-ideal for casual mornings or hosting dinner parties. Upstairs you'll find five well proportioned bedrooms including a primary suite with a thoughtfully updated master bath (2013). The main bathroom was remodeled in 2017, so both baths offer refreshed fixtures and finishes. With a half bath on the main level, the home provides convenient accommodations for guests while preserving privacy for family areas. The lower level is a real bonus: a partially finished basement hosts a large recreation room that can serve as a playroom, media space, or a home gym. There's also a dedicated utility area plus separate storage and a workshop-terrific setup for hobbyists or anyone who needs organized space for tools, seasonal items, or projects. Outside is a private backyard oasis anchored by an in-ground pool and spa. The pool has been well maintained with a liner replaced in 2018, a new multiport valve in 2024, both a new pool pump and spa valve installed in 2025, so you can enjoy swimming and relaxing with confidence. The yard is surrounded with a combination of mature bushes and an 8 foot fence (freshly painted in 2025) and a new 5-foot fence around the pool equipment that was also installed and painted in 2025, combining safety, privacy, and a neat, finished look. The property shows pride of ownership throughout: exterior cedar shingles were freshly painted in 2025 and the driveway was replaced in 2020. These recent investments-inside and out- mean less to worry about and more time to enjoy the home. With flexible living spaces, functional workshop and storage, and a turnkey outdoor retreat, this colonial offers a rare blend of classic style and modern convenience.
