Some homes ask you to imagine what they could be. This one is already there and waiting for you. This classic colonial has been lovingly updated and impeccably maintained by owners/designer who cared about every detail. Large, sun-drenched rooms, a layout that feels both timeless and completely livable, and the big-ticket items already handled: new roof, new HVAC, new kitchen and appliances, new bathrooms, new garage doors, mostly new windows, new Trex deck, freshly painted throughout, and beautiful landscaping. The to-do list has already been done! The kitchen tells you everything about how this home was tended. Expanded windows pour light across generous counter space, the pantry closet and large cabinets keep things organized, and an induction cooktop and eat-in area make everyday life feel a little more considered. Sliding doors open directly to the new Trex deck, because good kitchens don't end at the walls. Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms and two fully updated bathrooms offer real comfort. The primary bedroom includes a stunning new bathroom and a fabulous walk-in closet that makes the everyday routine feel a little more special. On the first floor, a powder room and a flexible den with fireplace work as a home office, playroom, or guest room, depending on what this season of life calls for. A sunny mudroom and laundry room with its own separate entrance off the kitchen keep the household running smoothly, and the two-car garage rounds out a home that was designed to actually live in. The walk-out lower level adds a chapter still to be written. Full, unfinished, with high ceilings and direct outdoor access and windows, it's ready for whatever you decide it should become. The flat, beautifully landscaped backyard with a fire pit patio turns an ordinary evening into a reason to stay outside a little longer. Less than a mile to the Scarborough Train Station for an easy city commute, Briarcliff Manor recreation right down the road with pool, tennis, pickleball, and summer camps, and the award-winning Ossining School District, this is a community that feels like home.
