Secluded Serenity at the Top of Butternut Brook | Portville School District. Tucked away at the top of Butternut Brook, this beautifully remodeled retreat offers the rare combination of privacy, space, and thoughtful upgrades that today's buyers are seeking yet rarely find. From the moment you arrive, the craftsmanship speaks for itself. Stunning woodwork graces the ceilings throughout, setting a tone of warmth and character that flows naturally through the open floor plan. The heart of the home is a showstopper kitchen anchored by a massive island, ideal for entertaining, homework sessions, or simply gathering together, which opens seamlessly into the formal dining room for those occasions that call for something a little more special. The kitchen is also a chef's delight, featuring an oversized Wolf natural gas stove that will help the household chef make delectable meals. With 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, the layout is both practical and luxurious. Heated floors in select bathrooms add those extra touches of comfort you didn't know you needed until you have them. The updates here aren't just cosmetic, but also functional. A brand-new boiler (2024), metal roof (2009), and replacement windows (2009) mean the big-ticket items are already taken care of, giving you peace of mind for years to come. A large deck with composite decking is built to last and perfect for warm evenings, while the fire pit area invites late nights under the stars. Multiple outdoor spaces ensure there's always somewhere to unwind, no matter the season or the mood. The basement is primed for finishing, whether you envision a family room, home gym, or an in-law suite complete with a full bath that was just installed. Even more impressive is the attic, stretching an extraordinary 60'1" x 16'9", a blank canvas that could become additional bedrooms, a playroom, a private primary suite, or even a home theatre. Few homes at any price point offer this kind of expansion opportunity. The oversized garage measures 30' x 23'10". Updated, secluded, spacious, and loaded with both finished and future potential — don't surface often in the Portville School District. This is the one worth seeing in person.
