Charm blends effortlessly with modern style at this classic gem. Rich wood trim, light floors, and thoughtful custom details define the quality here. The dramatic family room—with its soaring ceilings, elegant built-ins, and expansive windows—serve as an impressive gathering place. There is also a stunning dining/breakfast room that offers flexible space. Stone counters and stainless appliances lend to the beauty of the eat-in kitchen. The formal living room is anchored by a fireplace and the at-home-office is the perfect spot to work from home. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat: a private sitting room, walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath. Three additional bedrooms and a well-appointed bath accommodate family or guests with ease. A magazine worthy playroom in the lower level. Outdoor entertaining is easy with the expansive blue stone patio and sitting area. The property is set on a cul-de-sac with walking trails. Fabulous commuting location and near shops and the train.
