It honestly doesn't get better than this! Meticulously updated with every detail thoughtfully designed, this stunning colonial offers one-of-a-kind character and taste along with breathtaking meadow views abutting our beloved Lindabury Orchard and trails. The magical front yard is overflowing with mature trees and garden beds with swirls of vinca and lilies-of-the-valley while, out back, a pristine brick patio framed by picturesque gardens is the perfect spot to soak in nature's beauty by an open fire or enjoy the view from the generous wrap around deck! Inside, gorgeous wide pine floors take you into the custom cherry 2-island kitchen with beautiful stone tops, induction cooktop and tons of storage--a natural extension of the light-filled sunroom with skylights, spectacular views and access to both decks--my favorite room of the house! A cozy sitting room with wood-burning brick fireplace is perfect for cold evenings while a front-to-back living room with a wall of windows works well as a dining and/or living room. A tidy mudroom area with its own exterior door offers an updated 3/4 bathroom, separate laundry room and access to the 3-car garage. A separate staircase leads up to a large bonus room over the garage with built-ins, wood floors and a separate mini-split for heat and AC--perfect as a rec room, gym, office or guest suite! Up the main staircase you'll find a spacious primary suite with an updated bathroom including tile shower and glass surround along with double closets. 3 other bright bedrooms, all boasting hardwood floors, share an updated main bathroom with tub and tile surround offering plenty of room for everyone. Enjoy peace of mind w/a new heat pump system and on-demand generator along with all the benefits of this top school town within commuting distance to Boston--all while being tucked away in this quiet neighborhood just 5min from the Village or the Oval, 13min to shops and 30min to the airport. You will never want to leave this sunny oasis!
