OPEN HOUSES CANCELLED, the seller has accpeted an offer. This antique colonial has been greatly expanded and sits on a 16,000+/- sf idyllic lot, in an incredible side street neighborhood. This 5/6-bedroom home (4.5 bathrooms) boasts primary suites on both the 2nd floor as well as the 1st floor. The kitchen was gutted to the studs in 2022 and an incredible chef's kitchen with S&S appliances and soapstone counters was built. Off of the kitchen enjoy alfresco dining on the large walled bluestone patio. Open and incredibly gorgeous formal rooms (living, dining, family room, & bedroom) with custom built-ins, French doors & an oversized fireplace with hardwood floors on both the 1st & 2nd floors are all here to enjoy. Upstairs, 4 large bedrooms and 2 baths await you. The lower level has a separate bedroom suite with its own exterior access (this could be a 6th bedroom). There is also a home gym with exterior access. A new heating & AC system was added only a couple of years ago.
