Welcome to this absolutely stunning colonial home, beautifully situated on a premium lot that backs to mature trees offering a serene and private setting.

The main living area features a bright and open family room with a gas fireplace, mantel, and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the tranquil wooded views. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas cooktop, double wall ovens, built-in microwave, pendant and recessed lighting, a dedicated coffee bar area, and a large center island. Off the kitchen, the butler's pantry offers additional cabinetry and storage, and leads to a walk-in pantry with custom built-ins, a mudroom/catch-all area, garage access, and an additional door to the side yard.

A sun-drenched morning room off the kitchen is ideal for casual dining, reading, or a peaceful retreat, and leads out to the deck that overlooks the private, fully fenced backyard.
