Property Description

Welcome to this stunning 5 bedroom Colonial Revival that offers the perfect blend of original architectural details with modern comfort. 53 Bowdoin sits on a quarter of an acre, showcasing high ceilings, ornate moldings, elegant millwork, chestnut wainscoting and newly refinished oak hardwood floors. It also has modern amenities we've come to love such as an updated kitchen with custom cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, newly renovated bathrooms, new central air conditioning systems, a gas fireplace, a brand new roof, 200 amp electric, and new windows throughout. There are so many incredible areas to entertain guests such as the oversized living room, sun drenched maplewood room, elegant formal dining room with coffered ceilings, spacious center-island kitchen and expansive deck and yard. From the grand foyer, head up the impressive staircase to the 2nd floor where you will find a significant landing leading to 4 bedrooms and an updated hall bathroom. Continue to the 3rd floor to find the primary suite featuring a renovated bathroom and large flex room which would make for the perfect study, gym, or game room. The large basement lets in tons of natural light and presents endless opportunities for additional living space. This property also has ample parking with a 3 car garage and an additional 1 car garage! This home is incredibly located, you can walk to the train, Maplewood village, schools, playgrounds and more.
