Finding the perfect home doesn’t mean it only has to fit your budget criteria. When comparing homes, location and product can be the difference that makes your decision on buying a house versus a “home.” This home offers not only the “best of both worlds” but the advantage of being able to have it all. Nestled on a private road just before the end of the cul-de-sac, you will find a picturesque prime piece of property on about 3.5 acres. This private and tranquil setting has a pond in the rear section that can be viewed from the sun room or deck of the home, and also has an area with a former chicken coupe and also garden on the opposite side. The pool in the back of the home is a salt water pool, with the option to flip back to chlorine if you don’t prefer that ocean water and can be accessed from the walk out finished basement. Even hanging out on the lovely front porch after a long week can have its perks…but enough about the outside, let’s go inside! This meticulously maintained home is ready for entertainment or relaxation at any point. On one side, there is a large living room with fireplace, which opens up to a superb sunroom, ready to be taken advantage of by it’s the next owners. The kitchen has custom cabinetry and gorgeous granite that begs to be used over and over again. Hardwood flooring keeps the steady continuity and flow throughout the entire first floor, and when it comes time to relax, you can head upstairs.

There are 4 bedrooms in this colonial, and the master bedroom suite doesn’t leave anything to desire with its ample space, large closet, and amazing bathroom. The central bedroom, which is currently used as a studio/office, also has access to a walk-up attic, so no need to worry about any shortage of storage! The large lower level offers a huge finished area with a walk out, and the storage area and mechanical room are nothing to shy away from. The owner has records of energy usage, as this home is extremely energy efficient, even by today’s standards! The owner also changed all the windows to Anderson Windows, so please ask for information, because that is something you won’t see in many homes! Even though this home has a private setting, within minutes you can find yourself on Rt. 80, and can access I-95 or I-91 within minutes from there to get you to anywhere.
