Beautiful Home In Desireable Location
For over 100 years this classic side-hall colonial has graced this highly desirable neighborhood. Through loving care and thoughtful updates, this engaging home remains fresh and modern today. A central location puts you less than a 1/2 mile to Brayton Elementary school, Summit's thriving downtown and NYC commuter trains. As tall trees and mature shrubbery artfully frame the exterior, a covered front portico extends a warm welcome.
Step inside where a mix of charm and convenience come together with great success. The delightful foyer opens to the adjoining living room that spills into a sunny office or den. Windows on three sides assure sunlight reaches in to nearly every corner. With the freshly painted interior and gleaming hardwood floors throughout, you are free to arrange your furnishings and artwork as you see fit. From either the living room or office, there is access to the formal dining room, where guests are comfortably seated. Nearby, the updated kitchen has distinct working and eating areas, making dinner prep easy and offering great space for everyone to gather for daily meals. Sliders take you out to a deck, clearly designed for al fresco dining, entertaining and grilling. For your convenience, the powder room is located off the kitchen and includes access to stairs leading down to the lower level.
Bedrooms are comfortably nestled on the second and third levels. The master suite includes an updated full bath, while the family bedrooms are well served by the renovated hall bath. Another bedroom on the third floor boasts loads of closet storage and dormer windows.
Additional finished space is found on the lower level. The recreation room is ready for whatever leisure activity you have in mind. There is plenty of storage space and a full size laundry room with sink and cabinets.
Outside, the deck overlooks a deep, private backyard. Active play is welcome, while the avid gardener will find ample opportunity to exercise a green thumb.
With little to do except bring your furnishings and personal touches, this is a place you can easily call home and one you will be proud to showcase often.
