Tucked into a private setting with the land behind the home protected in Tree Growth, this spacious 4BR, 2 full bath, 2 half bath Colonial offers the perfect combination of room to spread out and peace of mind that your backyard view will remain wooded and undeveloped. With more than 4,000 square feet of living space, there is plenty of room for everyday living, entertaining and working from home. Enter through the attached 2-car garage into a practical mudroom featuring a built-in bench with storage and a large closet. The main floor offers both formal living and dining rooms, while the heart of the home is the open kitchen and great room with propane fireplace. The kitchen provides additional seating space and easy access to the back deck overlooking the fenced backyard. Upstairs, the oversized primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a private bath with double vanities, jetted tub and separate shower. Three additional generously sized bedrooms, a full shared bath and convenient second-floor laundry complete the upper level. The daylight basement adds approximately 900 square feet of finished space, featuring a large family room with built-in bar, included pool table and half bath -- an ideal setup for entertaining, game nights or relaxing. You'll also find unfinished storage areas for utilities and cold storage, plus direct access to the backyard through sliding glass doors. Additional highlights include excellent insulation for energy efficiency, radiant heat, central vacuum and updated flooring throughout many rooms. The property includes frontage on Lotus Brook, which leads to Hurd Pond just beyond, and is eligible for beach club membership and an option of a boat mooring on Lucerne (Phillips Lake). This home was built and lovingly cared for by the same owners since 2000. Don't miss your chance - call for a showing today!
