About this House

Renovated in 2019, this home was completely reimagined with a fresh modern aesthetic and refined mid-century edge. Ideally located in a sought-after neighborhood near parks, schools, the train, and town, it offers incredible natural light, an easy-flow layout, and the kind of space, style, and functionality that is hard to find. A generous foyer opens to sun-filled living and dining spaces with new hardwood floors, modern built-ins, and wood-burning fireplace, all flowing seamlessly into the sleek white kitchen with breakfast bar, quartz countertops, striking designer backsplash, and Bosch stainless steel appliances, including a drawer microwave. A four-season room with new flooring, high-efficiency windows, and heater that extends the living space and opens to an oversized back deck overlooking the huge fenced backyard. Set on a 200-foot-deep lot, the attached two-car garage is a rare and highly desirable feature for this style of home, offering everyday convenience while allowing for even more usable outdoor space. A first-floor office with a closet sits next to a full bath, creating ideal flexibility for work-from-home needs, guests, or a potential fifth bedroom. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms including a private primary suite with its own balcony overlooking the deep backyard-the perfect spot for morning coffee. The spacious primary bath features double sinks, a separate shower, and soaking tub, while the two additional bedrooms share a hall bath. An oversized rooftop deck above the garage is an unexpected standout feature and adds even more outdoor living space. The finished lower level includes a recreation room with fireplace, a fourth bedroom, full bath, and bright laundry room. With four full bathrooms, thoughtful design, and major 2019 improvements including roof, windows, hot water heaters, kitchen & kitchen appliances, bathrooms, flooring, and stylish lighting throughout, this is a true move-in-ready home with a rare combination of size, style, attached garage, and oversized yard. Just move in and enjoy easy access to Nick Corwin Park, Hubbard Woods School, the train, and town.
