What's special
Waiting for you to move right in, this spacious and sunlit 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom colonial in the highly sought-after Hartford Golf Club area combines the perfect blend of charm and comfort. Step into the welcoming formal living room, where a cozy wood-burning fireplace sets the tone for relaxing evenings. Adjacent, the formal dining room-with its dual corner cabinets-creates the ideal space for gatherings and memorable meals. The heart of this home is undoubtedly the enviable country kitchen. With gleaming granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and a generous eating area, it's a space designed to bring people together. From the kitchen, step through the slider to a deck that's perfect for outdoor entertaining, complete with a pergola and a level backyard that's ready for all your activities. Need even more room to unwind? The great room has you covered, boasting a stunning stone fireplace, vaulted ceiling, and skylights that flood the space with natural light. Head upstairs to find a peaceful retreat in the primary bedroom, complete with its own ensuite bath. Three additional bedrooms and a main hall bathroom round out the upper level, ensuring there's room for everyone. The partially finished basement adds flexibility, whether you need a home office, gym, or rec room. Throughout the home, hardwood floors lend a timeless elegance. Comfort is never a concern with multiple zones of gas heat and central air, and for added peace of mind, the electric panel is set up for a generator. Location is everything, and this home delivers. You're just a short stroll from the world-famous Elizabeth Park Rose Gardens and minutes from shopping, dining, schools, Houses of Worship, and more. Come for a visit and see why this home is everything you've been searching for.
