The sun-filled main level features hardwood floors, elegant architectural details, and thoughtfully designed spaces. At the center of the home is a spacious eat-in kitchen with island, abundant prep space, and seamless access to the patio and private backyard. A formal dining room, oversized fireplaced living room, first-floor bedroom, mudroom, and half bath provide both functionality and flexibility. Upstairs are two impressive primary suites with cathedral ceilings, walk-in closets, and private baths, along with two additional bedrooms, full bath, and laundry room. The finished lower level includes a spacious family room with fireplace and ample storage. An attached 2-car garage completes this exceptional home, conveniently located just minutes from Winchester Center’s shops, restaurants, commuter rail, and major routes.
