**HIGHEST AND BEST DEADLINE - TUESDAY, 5/20 AT 7 PM.** What if I told you that you can have a private oasis and still be in town? 142 Old North Stamford delivers just that-an estate-like setting on a tucked-away street, just a short walk to Whole Foods, Bulls Head, coffee shops, parks, houses of worship, and a quick drive to Metro North, I-95, and the Merritt. Set on nearly an acre with mature trees, stone walls, and a level backyard, this thoughtfully updated Colonial offers 3,500+ sq ft across three levels. Fall in love with the moods and rooms of yesteryear in this turn-of-the-century center hall Colonial, modernized for today's lifestyle. The main level includes a sun-filled living room with a fireplace and built-ins, a formal dining room with bay window and hutches, a dramatic home office, and a professionally designed kitchen with Viking cooktop, Miele double ovens, and a cozy banquette. A sunroom, mudroom, and access from the garage round it out. Upstairs offers 3 beds/2 baths on one side, and 1 bed/1 bath on the other-the two sides can connect. The primary suite has a fireplace, walk-in closet, and vaulted bath. The lower level features a custom climbing wall, rec area, and media zone. Out back: outdoor kitchen, heated copper-roofed pergola with TV, and play space. With natural gas heat, public water/sewer, and designer finishes-this one's rare. Don't miss it.
