Description
Greeted by a circular driveway and a traditional white picket fence, a serene lifestyle awaits in this light-filled property. Beautifully sited on a park-like lot, this renovated and expanded colonial provides respite from the outside world with its prime close-in location and unsurpassed country-club backyard. The fenced rear yard - abutting county parkland - is a secluded oasis. The porch and multi-level deck overlook a fabulous pool and lush landscaping. Step inside to the glorious piano-sized living room with its cathedral ceiling, Palladian windows, fireplace and exit to the deck and then ascend to the elegant dining room perfect for entertaining. The renovated and expanded eat-in kitchen with its enormous island, catering-style appliances-including a pot-filler over the stove - a pantry and a wine refrigerator is a cook's dream. Continue the party outside on the adjacent porch or mingle in front of the fireplace in the family room. Move on to the bedroom/den and full bath. With its separate entrance, this space could easily be used as a professional office or an in-law apartment.
