This exquisitely designed Nantucket Style Colonial, seamlessly blends elegance and everyday comfort. The main level effortlessly transitions from formal living and dining areas to the gourmet, eat-in kitchen, equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, granite countertops, and two islands. The kitchen overlooks a family room with fireplace. On the second level are four of the home’s five bedrooms including a stunning primary suite. The primary suite offers a tranquil, private balcony and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with an oversized soaking tub. Three spacious bedrooms and a bonus room round out the second level. Not to be missed is the third-floor bonus room-a great space for a playroom or home office. The living space extends to the finished lower level, which features a bedroom, kitchenette, and living room, creating an ideal in-law suite. Completing the package are a two-car garage, a terrace with an outdoor fireplace, and pergola. Located close to shops, trains and schools, this home is a must see!
