A rare and very desirable combination of excellent location, community, privacy and classic styling. Set on 1.3 acres on a quiet, no-outlet subdivision of approximately 30 homes, this spacious and well maintained home is being offered by the original owners. The location is superb. The Taconic Parkway, high school, middle school, primary school, town library, grocery store and more are all within an easy 8 minute drive. The beautiful 590 acre James Baird Park (with an 18 hole Robert Trent Jones designed golf course and miles of hiking trails) is just 5 minutes away. This 4 bedroom home is a classic colonial design with a breezeway and side entry 2 car garage. The wide and comfortable front porch runs the length of the home (42 feet) and is a great place to read, relax, greet neighbors or watch the kids play on the professionally landscaped lawn. A cobblestone walkway leads to the front door as well as the breezeway, where there is a drop zone with cubbies, bench seat and coat hooks. The main entry to the house is gracious and bright with 5 pane sidelights. The oversized windows make the entire house exceptionally bright and cheery. The hardwood floors in the entry, dining room and kitchen have all been refinished. The kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances and an open floor plan to the family room; here you will find a slate fireplace and sliding glass door to the newly built deck. There's a nice breakfast bump out area that looks out across the private, mostly wooded backyard. The laundry room is extraordinary and spacious. The primary bath offers a heated floor and heated, heated towel rack and new frameless shower door. The 1300 sqft unfinished walkout basement is great for storage, hobbies and play. The attic is easily accessible and most of it is floored, so storage will never be a problem. Recent improvements include a new boiler (2023), water heater (2022), deck (2024), garage doors and openers (2024), wall to wall carpet in the primary and guest bedrooms, professionally designed window treatments and generator hookup. The retiring owners have loved this home but their four children have all grown and moved to other parts of the country. It's time for the new owners to write the next chapter for this wonderful home.
