This Colonial charmer enjoys the verdant locale of its Countryside neighborhood setting on .44 acre of beautifully tended property with level rear and side yards. Its well-proportioned rooms and tasteful updates in all the right places make this home desirable. A focal wood burning fireplace with classic mantel graces the elegant living room, with custom built-ins and French doors that open to a first-floor library/home office. The formal dining room enjoys abundant windows and French doors that open to a delightful refinished deck (2013) and secluded yard. An open concept kitchen and family room are perfect for informal gatherings, showcasing a focal wood burning fireplace with front and back views in the family room, and warm cherry custom cabinetry, granite countertops and high-end stainless steel appliances in the renovated kitchen. Another set of French doors lead to the deck from the breakfast area for extended al fresco dining. Hardwood floors run throughout the second floor hallway and bedrooms. Inlaid ribbon banding enhances the hardwood floors in the master bedroom while a brick fireplace adds warmth and cachet.
