Welcome home to your personal escape close to everything! This spacious, rambling mid-century home is filled with quirky appeal and tons of personality. This multi-level beauty offers a unique floor plan with so much space to spread out. The main level features a sun-filled living room including a slate-faced wood burning fireplace making entertaining or holiday meals especially memorable. The current owners use this as their dining room. The original dining room doubles as a conversation area next to the kitchen which retains the original mid-century "I Love Lucy" look, including original birch cabinets, 1960's Neptune triple sink, double-oven stove and a Bosch dishwasher. You'll fall in love with the bright, open family room featuring panoramic views into the woods behind, complete with wildlife sightings in all seasons. In the summer the glass wall slides open to the screened porch for outdoor living. In colder weather you'll stay cozy when you fire up the high-efficiency Blaze King wood stove. Plus, the excess heat the wood burner produces rises to the beamed ceiling where it is captured by the in-take system and circulated throughout the rest of the house. In any season, the extra long window seat provides the perfect spot to curl up with your favorite book. The second level features two bedrooms and hall bath with art tile bath/shower, skylight and cork floors. Head upstairs to the spacious, light-filled master bedroom with full bathroom and walk-in closet. Head down from the main level to the bonus room which leads to the one-car garage or the mudroom with space for indoor storage or firewood so it's dry and ready, some already stacked and waiting for your first fires. The basement features a lower family room with tons of storage space and an ornamental fireplace, a laundry room with additional water closet, and a huge workshop. Outside, enjoy over a third acre of a gardener's paradise with a dozen oaks and woodland wildflowers. Many updates include a new roof, copper plumbing throughout, high efficiency gas furnace and newer air conditioner, skylights and pocket doors. You may never want to leave, but if you do, you can walk to train, town, elementary and middle schools, and so much more! Don't miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind charmer.
