This home offers an open floor plan with a fieldstone backdrop for the woodstove, hardwood floors throughout the living room, dining room, and kitchen, and cohesive vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings. All three main-floor bedrooms are carpeted and have walk-in closets. The primary bedroom includes a private master bath, and the laundry room is conveniently located on the main floor. The walkout lower level offers additional living space, including a large bedroom that could serve as a secondary primary suite, with the convenience of a half bath. The basement has several separate areas, including a flexible-use room that could serve as office space, an exercise room, or a nonconforming fifth bedroom. The center area would work well for homeschooling, a playroom, or additional living space. Another room has been soundproofed and would make a great music room, home studio, or hobby space. The sellers also purchased the adjoining lot and added a large fenced area, making it ideal for children, pets, or gardening while helping keep the deer out. Located less than a mile from state land and offering an easy commute to town, this property has plenty to offer. Sellers are downsizing and ready for their next chapter.

Quality, Stickbuilt home with room for everyone! Open floor plan with a centerpiece field-stone backdrop to the wood stove that accentuates the tongue and groove soaring ceilings and the woodsy view out the doorway to the deck in back. The walkout basement is mostly finished and features a huge recreational room along with a large bedroom, half bath and the start to a wet bar. 4 bedrooms all have walk-in closets and this home has newer paint and carpet throughout. Good landscaped hilltop location with only one neighbor. Dual garages - a 2 car attached and a 2 car detached complete with a lean-to and an upper bonus storage room. Very energy efficient package and nothing to fix or remodel here!
