Stunning Colonial on 3.74 Acres with Exceptional Features and Privacy! Welcome to this beautiful large Colonial home nestled on 3.74 private acres in a serene country setting. Offering both space and comfort, this property is perfect for those seeking a peaceful retreat with modern conveniences. As you approach the home, you'll be greeted by a charming wrap-around front porch that invites you to sit and enjoy the surroundings. The maintenance-free exterior ensures a hassle-free lifestyle, while the large deck provides the perfect space for outdoor dining and entertaining. The yard is complemented by a dedicated basketball area, ideal for family fun. For those needing extra space, this home offers not one, but two amazing garages! The oversized attached garage is both finished and heated, providing plenty of room for vehicles or hobbies. Additionally, the massive detached garage is also finished, heated, and air-conditioned, making it an excellent space for a workshop or additional storage. Next to it is a covered RV parking area with it's own gravel driveway. Step inside to the inviting main level, which features an office, a two-story foyer, and a formal dining room complete with crown molding, chair rail, and gleaming hardwood floors. The spacious kitchen boasts an island with a breakfast bar, a cozy breakfast nook, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, a ceiling fan, and beautiful Silestone countertops. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room, where you'll enjoy a gas fireplace with a stone hearth — perfect for those cooler evenings. The kitchen leads out to the maintenance-free deck, offering a stunning view of your private backyard oasis. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is a true retreat with multiple walk-in closets, and the en-suite bath includes a jetted soaking tub and separate shower. Two additional generously-sized bedrooms complete the upper level. This home also features a whole-house Generac generator, ensuring peace of mind during power outages. The huge unfinished basement offers ample storage, built-in shelving, and rough-in plumbing, along with a large water heater and a new tankless water heater (not yet connected), providing excellent future potential for additional living space. With exceptional attention to detail, this home offers both privacy and luxury — a rare find that will not last long!
