About this House

Step into timeless American charm with this thoughtfully crafted, custom-built home where nature-infused sophistication blends seamlessly with modern comfort. Spanning approximately 7,000 square feet, this 5-bedroom, 4.2-bath residence was designed with both refined living and practical functionality in mind.

The primary suite is a private haven with its own entry hall, sunlit bedroom overlooking the backyard, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-style bath-your personal retreat. The third floor offers a tucked-away sitting area and flex space-ideal for a studio, reading nook, or private office.

Outside, enjoy peaceful evenings on your bluestone and brick patio, overlooking a rare 75-foot extra-wide backyard-ideal for entertaining, gardening, or simply taking in the open air. All fenced in with a 2-car detached garage and professional landscaping. Steps to town, train, schools, beach and more!
