With panoramic views from virtually every room, this handsome "All American" Colonial home presides over cascading front lawns and garden beds, set in a lovely tree-lined Franklin School neighborhood. Spacious rooms with crown moldings, hardwood floors that run throughout and an enviable center hall floor plan are what make this classic home special. The reception hall introduces the home's formal rooms - a gracious living room and handsome dining room on either side, each with a picture window that captures winter views of distant rolling hills. Casual living takes place at the heart of the home - the eat-in kitchen and family room. Warm, light cherry cabinetry adds warmth to the kitchen, topped with granite and a complement of stainless steel appliances that include a Viking cooktop, KitchenAid double ovens, SubZero refrigerator, wine fridge, and more. A breakfast area with built-in banquette seating with storage set beneath a bay window enjoys pretty back yard views. A mudroom off the kitchen offers convenient access from both the oversized two-car garage with pull-down attic storage above and the parking court, complete with laundry, laundry chute from the second floor and coat closet. A powder room is located nearby. The step-down family room is both comfortable and inviting, set beneath a high ceiling, with a focal fireplace framed by built-in bookcases, wall-to-wall carpeting and built-in media cabinet. Sliders open to a private bluestone patio and level, fenced yard framed with mature plantings --the perfect venue for extended outdoor relaxation. Spacious bedrooms are spread out along the open second-floor hallway, each with expansive, lofty views and generous custom-fitted closets. A full hall bath includes a double vanity with natural stone countertops and a tub shower.
