Description

Nestled in an unbeatable College View location, this charming center-entry red brick Colonial is a true gem. Rich in old-world charm and timeless character, yet featuring today's desirable open floor plan, this home truly has it all. The inviting foyer welcomes you into a home designed for comfortable living and effortless entertaining. The oversized family room with fireplace easily accommodates large furniture arrangements and is flooded with natural light. The chef's kitchen, fully renovated in 2015, opens seamlessly to the dining room and features custom cabinetry, solid surface countertops, stainless steel appliances, island seating for five, a walk-in pantry, and a charming window seat with built-in storage. There's also ample space for a breakfast table, making this kitchen as functional as it is beautiful. Just off the kitchen is a convenient mudroom with built-in locker cabinetry, perfect for today's busy lifestyle. The mudroom is oversized and was originally used as a family room or breakfast room for the past owner, now it serves as a mud room/play room - so many options to this room. Updated half bath. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, adding warmth and character to every room. The authentic staircase leads to the second floor, offering four generously sized bedrooms with abundant closet space, including linen and cedar closets, along a beautifully updated bathroom done in 2022. An unfinished walk-up attic provides exceptional storage and exciting expansion possibilities. Thoughtfully updated throughout the years, the home includes a newer roof (2015). The finished basement was renovated in 2018 and features waterproofing, a full bathroom, laundry room (laundry chute from the 2nd floor hallway & 1st floor bath), mechanical room, and two versatile recreation spaces, including a bar area perfect for entertaining family and friends. Additional improvements include a concrete driveway and patio installed in 2021, expanding parking capacity and enhancing accessibility. Step outside to a large, fenced backyard that serves as your own private oasis-perfect for relaxing, entertaining, basketball, pickleball or simply enjoying the outdoors. Just moments from town, the train, parks, schools, library, and the Spring Road Business District, this exceptional home combines classic architecture, modern updates, and an unbeatable location.
