Welcome to this beautifully maintained 1994 Colonial, perfectly situated on a premier, flat, dry acre at the end of a quiet, Private Cul-de-Sac.

Boasting 4,423 square feet of above-grade living space, this home is bathed in incredible natural light throughout. The thoughtfully designed layout features 5 spacious bedrooms and 4.5 well-appointed baths-including a primary suite featuring a vaulted ceiling, fireplace, hydro-tub, stall shower, walk-in closet, and hardwood floors, backed by a $50,000 closing credit toward primary bath customization and improvements. Offering plenty of room for family and guests alike, the heart of the home provides a seamless flow and an incredible space for entertaining friends and family, whether hosting formal dinners or casual weekend gatherings. A massive, versatile bonus recreation room sits privately over the 3-car garage-perfect for a playroom, media center, home gym, or an expansive home office. Step outside to enjoy the sprawling, level backyard, a rare find that offers endless possibilities for outdoor fun, gardening, or relaxation.
