Refinished hardwood floors flow throughout the home, including brand new hardwood on the staircase and upper-level bedrooms. The oversized primary suite is a true sanctuary, boasting vaulted ceilings, a second fireplace, and an abundance of custom-built storage. A one-of-a-kind library and office nook adds character and charm to this already exceptional space. Two generously sized bedrooms and a fully updated bathroom with granite countertops, new sinks, and refinished cabinetry complete the third level. Additional features include a lovely patio terrace, full-size, front-facing laundry room, a 1.5-car attached garage and RECENTLY UPGRADED HOT WATER HEATER, FURNACES, and AIR CONDITIONER.
