This sun-filled brick colonial in coveted Waban exudes timeless charm with thoughtful updates. The elegant front to back living room with gas fireplace and dentil molding is complemented by a formal dining room leading to the eat-in kitchen and family room. Remodeled in 2017, the chef’s kitchen with wet bar features honed marble countertops and top of the line Jenn-Air appliances. A private home office, complete with built-ins, opens to the patio. Four bedrooms including the en-suite primary reside on the second floor, and the unfinished attic offers expansion possibilities. The partially finished basement includes a fireplace, exercise space & a workshop. The professionally landscaped yard, enhanced with string lighting, provides a private oasis for outdoor gatherings and relaxation. Close to the Angier school, the “T” and all major routes. This beautiful home w/direct access two-car attached garage, slate roof, central air, and gas systems checks all the boxes!
