Situated in the wonderful community of Todmorden, this gracious Colonial sits at the top of a circular driveway and is as beautiful inside as it is out! Nested on almost an acre of land, this home has been elevated not only aesthetically but also in its functionality. There is a newer heating and air conditioning system, new appliances and beautifully renovated bathrooms and kitchen! In addition, the current owners have made this home look like a designer showcase - not only with furnishings but how it is appointed with light fixtures, shiplap, high-end carpeting in places, etc! There are so many fabulous things about this 5 BR/2.2 BA home - a wonderful finished basement with full bathroom, bedroom, recreation area and a huge storage room, an enormous screen porch which overlooks the woods - there is also level land running adjacent to the house and a patio on the other side of the porch. The first floor has a large living room, a large dining room with wonderful storage closet, a family room with a wet bar hidden behind built-in cabinetry, a mudroom with a separate entrance and a 2-car garage! The kitchen is simply sublime! This house is a true gem !
