Going under contract. Waiting on signatures. This lovely 3 Br/1.5 Ba 2-Story Colonial home has just become available & offers expanded living space, lots of amenities & great updates for you to enjoy! In just the last couple of months, the 2nd floor renovation was completed to combine 2 of the 4 bedrooms making the Primary BR much larger than the original floor plan! This renovation included new studs, closet, insulation, drywall, paint & carpet for the Primary Bedroom as well as new carpeting for the 2nd floor hallway! Other updates include: Converted Fireplace from Gas to Wood burning & replaced chimney liner, Refinished HW floors on main floor, Fully renovated Kitchen, Renovated Sunroom to include Radiant heat under tiles, all new drywall & light fixtures, fresh paint in most rooms between 2018-2020; Replaced sewer line from yard to street in 2019, New Hot Water Heater in 2020 as well as new insulation in attic after completing an Energy Audit in 2020 for the Energy Star Program! Start your tour taking notice of the great curb appeal this home offers. Mature shade tree out front accents the curved landscape beds & evergreen bushes, long driveway extending to back of house, dimensional roof, covered front entry & 2 attractive Bay windows! As you enter the home, the spacious & bright Living Room is at your right highlighted by the gleaming HW fls, an oversized Bay window flanked by casement windows & a deep window sill (great for displaying plants or your decor). There's also a good sized coat closet close to the Kitchen entry & a separate double opening that flows nicely into the formal Dining Rm. The Home's Kitchen has been fully renovated to include HW flooring, new cabinets w/ nickel pulls, recessed lighting, new countertops with under-mount sink, SS gas range & matching appliances, a deep herb/garden window overlooking the backyard, basement access & a convenient opening to the cozy Family Rm updated in the last few years to include changing the FP from gas to wood burning, some fresh paint, added recessed lighting & new carpeting.

There you'll notice the dry-locked block walls, after market French Drain system, deep closet under the staircase, and a paneled wall separating the basement from the secondary laundry hook ups & utilities areas w/ a large bar-counter as a pass through . If you add an egress window, there's certainly potential for finishing the basement in the future for even more living space! Put this great home on your next tour!
