Welcome home to Apple Hill. This center hall colonial is set on more than an acre of level grounds in a cul-de-sac where space, comfort, and thoughtful improvements come together beautifully. The cul-de-sac provides privacy, quiet and a sense of security. Inside, recently refinished hardwood floors bring warmth to the living and dining rooms, while fresh paint and natural light create a bright, welcoming feel. The remodeled kitchen is the heart of the home, with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, a coordinating backsplash, and tile flooring that flows through the entry hall. Beyond what you see, there's comfort in knowing much of the important work has already been done: a newer roof, central air, three-zone hot-water baseboard heat, newer hot-water heater, a whisper-quiet water pressure pump, updated gutters and downspouts, and septic improvements. Outside, a large Trex deck invites morning coffee and summer dinners, while the above-ground pool and expansive level lawn create a backyard made for long days outdoors. Thoughtful conveniences, including attic storage, a traditional laundry chute, central vacuum, hardwired fire and security system, storage shed with circuit breakers, and garage-door upgrades, make everyday living that much easier. Warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully improved, this is a home ready to be lived in and enjoyed from day one.
