Majestically sited on 3.7 acres, this cherished and well-built 3 bedroom, 3 bath Colonial offers a private country setting to be envied. The scale of the rooms is noteworthy, making the house feel larger than it is. The renovations undertaken here have prioritized the vintage character of this home, avoiding trends and embracing classic, quality selections, exemplified by the striking remodeled kitchen featuring Brazilian cherry floors, beautiful cabinetry, sealed butcher block counters, stainless appliances, and the iconic Shaws farmhouse sink. The dining area connects beautifully for meals, homework, and entertaining. A swing door leads to the large dining room with twin corner cabinets and authentic wood paneling. Everything about this home is generous, from the number of windows to the graceful width of the gorgeous staircase. To the left of the front entry, the large front to back living room shows off its beautiful light, fireplace and easy access to your new favorite spot: the 3-season screened porch with tiled floor. The second floor has 3 bedrooms including the large primary suite with walk-in closet and second closet, and a remodeled bathroom with Carrara marble shower, bead board paneling, and custom vanity crafted from reclaimed barn boards. Across the hall are 2 additional well-sized bedrooms, a hallway bathroom with bathtub, and access to the fully-floored attic for additional storage.
