About This Home

Exceptional space, craftsmanship and privacy come together in this custom Colonial, beautifully positioned on a desirable cul de sac. Offering 6,549 square feet, 5 bedrooms and 5.1 baths, the home features custom millwork, hardwood floors and thoughtful architectural detail throughout. A dramatic two story foyer opens to a gracious dining room, sun filled living room and richly finished library. The spacious kitchen features white cabinetry, granite countertops and an oversized center island, opening seamlessly to the family room with a striking floor to ceiling fireplace. An expansive deck with pergola extends the living space outdoors, offering multiple areas for relaxing, dining and entertaining while enjoying peaceful wooded and seasonal views. The naturally sloped backyard creates privacy, a sense of elevation and a scenic wooded setting. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a sitting room, fireplace and spacious bath, while a second primary suite provides added flexibility. Three additional generously sized bedrooms complete the upper level. The finished lower level adds a media area, game room, office and full bath, creating flexible space for recreation, a home office or additional accommodations. Beautiful architectural details, generous living spaces, privacy and expansive outdoor entertaining areas combine to create a distinctive property in an appealing cul de sac setting.
