**Highest & Best Monday @8PM** *PRIVATE STREET OFF LONG RIDGE* Space is one thing. Usable space is another. This North Stamford Colonial offers something buyers rarely regret: a 5th bedroom and bonus room above the garage, ready to become a playroom, gym, movie room, office, guest space, or whatever life calls for next. One of North Stamford's best-kept secrets is how convenient the Long Ridge corridor really is. Near the Merritt Pkwy, Old Long Ridge Village, restaurants and everyday conveniences, getting where you need to go is surprisingly easy. Set on a private road, this charming New England Colonial offers a layout that works for everyday living and entertaining. The updated eat-in kitchen features updated cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, island seating, a breakfast area and great sightlines into the family room with a wood-burning fireplace. The dining room opens directly to the living room, creating easy flow for entertaining, holiday gatherings and everyday life. Upstairs are five bedrooms, including a primary suite with updated bath. The 5th bedroom easily functions as an office, guest room or pajama room. Hardwood floors run throughout most of the home. The walkout basement offers excellent storage today and future finishing potential tomorrow, plus the peace of mind of professional waterproofing. Outside, enjoy a flat backyard plus a gazebo ready for its next chapter. A two-car garage completes the package. A layout you'll appreciate for years to come.

Additional highlights include fresh interior paint, refinished hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, updated bathrooms and a professionally waterproofed walkout basement. The existing gazebo (as-is) previously had electric and plumbing connected and offers the opportunity to restore a classic New England backyard retreat. Convenient access to the Merritt Pkwy, Old Long Ridge Village, restaurants and everyday conveniences.
