Welcome to this beautifully expanded 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath Cape in Albertson, thoughtfully gut renovated down to the studs in 2023. This exceptional residence seamlessly blends modern sophistication with timeless design. The main level offers a desirable primary en-suite, complemented by two additional bedrooms and 1.5 baths. A stunning chef's kitchen, illuminated by two skylights, serves as the heart of the home and features quartz countertops, a center island, and Samsung appliances. The adjoining living space is enhanced by striking exposed wood ceiling beams and a dramatic vaulted ceiling, creating an open and airy feel, while the living room features a classic wood-burning fireplace, adding warmth and character. The fully finished basement is designed for versatility, complete with wood-look tile flooring, washer/dryer, and utility sink. Mechanical upgrades include a Bosch gas furnace and a separate on-demand hot water system. Anderson replacement windows, LED lighting throughout-including custom accent lighting-and Hunter Douglas motorized shades enhance both comfort and style. Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring a Trex deck overlooking a fully fenced, fully landscaped backyard with a 4-zone in-ground sprinkler system. Expansive sliding glass doors create a seamless transition from the dining area to the deck, inviting abundant natural light and enhancing the home's open, airy feel. A detached two-car garage and owned solar panels contribute to energy efficiency and reduced electric costs (current owner reports an average electric bill of approximately $30, based on usage). Low taxes (currently grieved) add to the home's overall value. Conveniently located near parks, shopping, and public transportation, including the LIRR. A truly move-in ready home offering quality craftsmanship and modern convenience throughout.
