A separate, generously sized family room provides additional space for relaxing and gathering. The spacious primary suite overlooks the backyard and offers a serene retreat with a spa-inspired bath, walk-in closet and sitting room. Four additional well-proportioned bedrooms and three full baths provide exceptional flexibility and plenty of room for family and guests.

Outdoors, a generous bluestone patio creates the perfect setting for al fresco dining and entertaining. A new roof is scheduled for installation next month. Ideally situated in a sought-after neighborhood with convenient access to local amenities and award-winning schools, this beautifully updated home offers the perfect blend of timeless charm, modern amenities, and comfortable everyday living.
