Property Description
Homes like this are rarely available where every major upgrade and design detail has already been thoughtfully completed. This beautifully renovated and meticulously maintained ranch offers true move-in-ready living in one of Middlesex's most desirable residential neighborhoods, just one block from Victor Crowell Park featuring a duck pond, playground, and open green space. From the moment you arrive, the pride of ownership is evident with premium siding, Andersen 400 Series windows installed in 2021, manicured landscaping, and inviting curb appeal. Step inside to a custom mudroom with built-in bench seating, cubbies, and overhead storage. The bright living room features oak hardwood floors, a large picture window, custom built-ins with glass shelving and lighting, and a gas fireplace updated in 2022. The stunning custom kitchen is the centerpiece of the home, featuring heated herringbone porcelain tile floors, vaulted ceilings with four skylights, custom cabinetry, quartzite countertops, and high-end stainless steel appliances. A spacious eat-in area with built-ins provides the perfect gathering space. A custom staircase with sleek glass railing and built-in cabinetry with recessed TV adds a striking architectural element. The main level offers three bedrooms with hardwood flooring and custom closet systems, along with a beautifully renovated primary bathroom featuring porcelain marble walls, heated floors, dual vanity, and a Steamist steam shower. The finished basement adds exceptional living space. A massive custom laundry room with quartz counters and cedar walk-in closet greets you at the bottom of the stairs. Across from it is a large storage and utility room with a high-efficiency two-speed Trane HVAC system installed in 2021. The expansive family room includes a beverage bar, full bathroom, and egress window allowing flexible use as recreation space, guest suite, or potential bedroom. A built-in bench seating area with bookshelves and artistic Venetian plaster accent walls adds unique character. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard with large cement patio ideal for relaxing and entertaining.
