WITH THE WARM TEMPS- SUMMER IS ALMOST HERE- BRING ON THE SUMMER BBQs AROUND THE POOL!!!! This charming Dutch Colonial in the highly sought-after Buxton community features a private backyard oasis with a salt water inground pool. Tucked on a private lot just minutes from shopping, dining, medical facilities, and convenient interstate access, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect blend of character, space, and outdoor living. Step outside and fall in love with the backyard retreat featuring a salt water inground pool with new liner, a large pool deck, and a fully fenced privacy yard—perfect for summer BBQs, pool parties, or relaxing evenings at home. The home sits on a spacious lot with a large front yard, long paved driveway, abundant parking, and a rear-entry one-car garage. A new septic tank provides peace of mind for years to come. Inside, the welcoming foyer showcases hardwood floors and classic trim details. The formal dining room features beautiful wood flooring, natural light, and a stylish barn slider door. The oversized family room offers plush carpet, a large picture window, and an easy flow into the eat-in kitchen. The kitchen is truly the heart of the home with its charming brick wood-burning fireplace, tile floors, stainless steel appliances, tiled backsplash, breakfast bar, abundant cabinetry, and a built-in desk area—plus great views of the backyard and pool. The first-floor primary suite includes hardwood floors, great natural light, built-in desk space, and a private ensuite bath. Upstairs you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms and a large hall bath. One bedroom connects to a huge walk-in attic offering incredible storage or future expansion potential.
