This handsome Colonial absolutely sparkles. Gleaming wood floors accent an open floor plan highlighted by a classic front to back living room, a formal dining room, and a recently remodeled kitchen with new custom cabinets, granite countertops, and a center island perfect for casual dining. The family room is truly "great" complete with a beamed ceiling, wood-burning fireplace and sliders to an entertainment sized deck overlooking a beautifully private back yard framed by a fieldstone wall. The 4 bedrooms are well-proportioned and the 2 full baths have been tastefully updated. The walk-out lower level has been partially finished into an inviting space with plush carpeting, recessed lighting and windows to allow in abundant natural light. Currently used as a children's playroom, it could also serve nicely as a home office. The remaining unfinished area accommodates the laundry center, the mechanicals, and provides ample room for storage. This is the best deal in Scituate, hands down!
