This beautifully updated, hip-roofed colonial is perfectly set on a lovely wooded lot in popular neighborhood near the Hollis border. The sprawling kitchen includes TWO islands and stainless steel appliances. Natural cherry cabinets offer vast storage and sparkling granite counters pair magically with the brick backsplash--a perfect setting for parties! Nearby a large family room with vaulted wood ceilings adjoins to a convenient office or guest bedroom and offers quick access to the courtyard outside. At the front of the house a comfortable living room with gas flreplace opens easily to the kitchen area while a formal dining room offers more space for entertaining. Don't miss the handly mudroom and laundry room/half bath that lead to an oversized 2-car garage. Upstairs is a welcoming master suite with space for a king, 2-bowl sink and enormous walk-in closet. 2 other bedrooms are well-sized and located near the updated tile bathroom. At the end of the hall is a huge 4th bedroom or multipurpose room that makes a fabulous office and game room! Outside you'll love to relax with a drink on the dappled custom stone patio surrounded by endless woods and groomed landscaping. Central A/C, hardwood floors and new carpet in much of the house, new paint and updated lighting make this a no-brainer. Conveniently located just 6min from Rt 101 and commuting routes and 11min to the MA border, you'll enjoy top-rated schools and the friendly small-town vibe. Pre-inspected! Showings begin 8/1.
