Hardwood floors bring warmth and character to the living and dining rooms, while a fireplace creates a cozy gathering space. A light-filled family room with a heat pump and direct access to the exterior deck offers even more room to relax or entertain. A full bath with a walk-in shower completes the first floor. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, a dedicated office ideal for remote work or creative pursuits, and a second full bath featuring a jetted tub and shower combination. Thoughtful mechanical updates provide year-round comfort and efficiency, including a gas steam boiler and both ducted and ductless heat pump systems for heating and cooling. A hybrid heat pump hot water tank installed in 2025 adds another energy-conscious improvement, while the roof was replaced in 2021. Outside, the oversized backyard is designed for enjoyment, with a composite deck leading to a pool installed in 2022. There's plenty of space for lounging, entertaining, gardening, or gathering around a fire pit. An exterior shed provides convenient storage for gardening tools and outdoor essentials.
