About This Home

This elegant Colonial offers timeless character and exceptional space, featuring 6 bedrooms plus a dedicated office, high ceilings, and beautiful period details. From the wrap porch enter a gracious foyer with a turned staircase to set the tone, leading to a large, beam-accented living room and a formal dining room with a bay window that flows seamlessly into the eat-in kitchen. A half bath and screened porch complete the main level. The second floor includes four bedrooms and two full baths, highlighted by a spacious primary suite with a walk-in closet, fireplace, and en suite bath. The third floor provides two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a private office—ideal for guests or flexible living. A walkout lower level offers a media room with glass doors opening to a mostly level, private yard, creating the perfect setting for indoor-outdoor living. Set in a coveted location, the home offers close proximity to the commuter rail, major highways, shops and restaurants. A Gem!
