Listing broker remarks

A premier property and location beautifully sited and perched above the road, and quite possibly the best location in the neighborhood. This home is designed for comfortable living with well-planned entertaining spaces. You will find a large, open eat-in kitchen that flows gracefully into the family and living room. There are sliders that open onto a beautiful brick-and-stone patio overlooking the private backyard and gardens. There's a three-season porch with both glass and screen windows. You can enjoy a formal dining room with pocket doors and an adjacent wetbar. The first level has a generously sized office or den with a pellet stove. On the upper level, there are four bedrooms and a bonus craft room. One of the additional bedrooms is an ensuite, separate from the primary, which lends itself well to a guest or extended-family space. This home was built with the capability to finish the third-floor walk-up, as seen in the pictures. An exceptional offering and much versatility.— Coldwell Banker Realty - Sudbury
