Offers, if any, due Wednesday 3/8 by 9am! Situated on an expansive 15,000sqft lot in the highly sought-after Wesley Heights neighborhood, this five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath colonial features recent updates and a sun-filled and spacious floor plan. The interior highlights beautiful finishes including hardwood floors, stunning millwork and crown moldings, and custom built-ins. The main level boasts a gracious foyer, elegant formal dining room, spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace and french doors leading to the expansive back deck, and a den or private office with built-ins and additional fireplace. The recently renovated gourmet kitchen offers beautiful cabinetry (including a large appliance garage hutch to hide all of your kitchen gadgets), a center island with seating, a mix of Cardosa honed granite and White Carrara honed marble, coffered ceilings, high-end stainless steel appliances (including a Sub-Zero fridge and Wolf six-burner range with griddle and double oven), and is open to the sun-filled breakfast area overlooking the private backyard. The butler’s pantry connects the kitchen to the formal dining room and offers a wet bar with a beverage center, pantry storage with a separate broom/vacuum closet, and a day office closet with a filing drawer. The expansive deck off the main level was completely rebuilt and overlooks the flat private yard. It connects to the rare studio space above the detached garage, the perfect spot for entertaining.

On the second floor, you will find the luxurious primary suite, complete with vaulted ceilings, a Juliet balcony overlooking the backyard, and an ensuite bathroom with a separate shower and soaking tub. Completing this level are three additional bedrooms and a hall bathroom. The third level offers a large unfinished attic ideal for storage, or potential to be finished into an additional bedroom or recreation room. Rounding out the home, the walk-out lower level features an additional private office, laundry room, ample storage, an additional bedroom and full bathroom (making it the ideal in-law suite), and a large recreation room with access to the covered back patio that connects to the detached two-car garage. The professionally landscaped exterior serves as an extension of the home, including a covered rear patio off the lower level, an expansive deck off the main level, and a large, flat, fenced-in backyard with mature plantings and trees.
