About This Home

Nestled at the end of a long private drive south of the Merritt Parkway, this classic Colonial offers timeless character, generous living space, and a highly convenient location. Beautifully expanded and thoughtfully updated 15 years ago, the home showcases exceptional craftsmanship, enduring quality, and solid construction described as having "great bones." The main level is rich with architectural detail - an elegant front-to-back Living Room with fireplace and exquisite custom built-in cabinetry and the Dining Room with beautiful built-in details. At the heart of the home is an expansive Kitchen featuring high-end appliances, custom built-ins, and a second fireplace in the casual dining area-an inviting space for morning coffee, relaxed meals, or entertaining. The adjacent light-filled Family Room offers beautiful views of the changing seasons and provides a comfortable extension of the main living areas. The house includes four spacious bedrooms and 2.5 baths, while a private suite above the garage adds a fifth bedroom with full bath, offering flexibility for guests, a private office or additional living space. Finished recreational space on the lower level provides room to work, play, exercise and the generous terrace creates an inviting setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. With its distinctive architecture, thoughtful layout, and quality details, the home offers an exceptional foundation for personalization, including some cosmetic updating to the exterior.
