Description

A beautiful stone-front exterior and attractive landscaping create exceptional curb appeal and set the tone for this well-maintained home. The foyer features hardwood flooring that extends throughout most of the first and second levels. The living room is filled with natural light from a large triple window that offers a fantastic view of the sunrise and is anchored by a stone, wood-burning fireplace. The formal dining room is highlighted by a chair rail and an expansive bay window that stretches nearly from floor to ceiling, bathing the space in sunlight. The kitchen offers tile flooring, a tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and direct access to the breezeway, patio, and garage. This gem features a versatile floor plan with two additional rooms that currently serve as an office and a first-floor primary bedroom, though both could easily be utilized as traditional bedrooms or a playroom. The room currently being used as an office overlooks the backyard and basketball area, providing an ideal workspace complete with a large storage closet. The first-floor primary bedroom features abundant natural light, a ceiling fan, and a spacious closet. A full bathroom with tile flooring, a tiled tub surround, and a separate stall shower completes the main level. The second floor offers three additional bedrooms. Two of these bedrooms are generously sized and feature oversized closets, while an additional walk-in closet is conveniently located in the hallway. The third bedroom serves as a wonderful nursery or child's room and includes ample closet space. A hall bathroom with tile flooring, a tiled shower, and a linen closet completes this level. The lower level features a fully finished, heated basement with tile flooring that hosts multiple distinct living areas. There is a dedicated recreation room equipped with a pool table, a wet bar, and shelving for toys and games, as well as a separate family room that serves as the perfect spot for game days and movie watching. An office or storage room, laundry area, a powder room, and a utility room complete the lower level, while a set of Bilco doors provides convenient access to the fenced backyard. The outdoor area is equally impressive, showcasing a beautiful stamped concrete patio with an awning, alongside a breezeway that offers the perfect setting to relax and enjoy sunrise views. Significant recent improvements provide added value and peace of mind for the next owner. A new roof was installed in 2023, followed by the installation of the HVAC system, hot water heater, and fencing in 2024. These substantial investments reflect the care and attention given to the property, allowing buyers to enjoy modern efficiency and reliability for years to come. The garage is equipped with an EV charger making it even more economical; on top of being able to walk 1 block to the train, you can charge your electric car on day 1!
