Serene - that's how this meticulously updated, sunfilled, center hall colonial classic will make you feel.

The Living Room is spacious, w/ woodburning fireplace and double French doors to the Sunroom. The large Dining Room will hold your most festive gatherings. The chef's Kitchen, with honed granite counters, custom Parsons cabinetry, top of the line stainless steel appliances (Wolf, SubZero, Bosch), custom island and sunlit brkfast area is the heart of the home. The floor through center hall, with Mud and Powder Rooms, leads out to the multi-level deck and deep property (over 1/3 of an acre). Upstairs, the well-appointed Primary Suite, with en suite Full Bath, custom organized closets and window-lined Office, is your private retreat. Two more large Bedrooms & updated Full Bath finish off the 2d floor. The landings at each level are deep with built-ins and large windows.
