About the Home

Beautifully renovated and reimagined, this home appears as if it were lifted directly from a designer's showhouse. Perfectly situated in a prime neighborhood, the residence offers the ideal balance of privacy and convenience, located just minutes from town, schools, and the train. Nestled at the end of a private cul-de-sac on over two acres of park-like property, this 5 bedroom 3 full 2 half bath, Colonial home spans more than 4,000 square feet. The sun-drenched interior is designed for effortless entertaining, featuring an expansive layout with vaulted ceilings and an abundance of windows that flood every room with incredible natural light. The sparkling, renovated chef's kitchen is equipped with premium Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances and includes a charming breakfast room with a bay window. The main level flows seamlessly from the formal living room-complete with a fireplace and vaulted ceiling-to the formal dining room. The inviting family room also features a fireplace and oversized windows, while the sunroom provides a serene retreat overlooking the lush backyard and an expansive outdoor deck. The entire second floor has been reconfigured to create a luxurious owner suite including marble bath soaking tub and walk in closets. Functional luxury abounds in the mudroom, which offers custom built-in cubbies, ample closet space, heated floors, and a convenient half bath. This one is special.
