Spacious and light-filled center hall colonial in the sought after Countryside subdivision of Essex. This 4 bedroom, 3 bath home has all of those "extras" buyers are looking for! New ceramic tile flooring in the foyer leads to a living room with a wood burning fireplace at its core. Opposite the living room, you'll find an office which could easily serve as a library or den. At the rear of the first floor, you'll find a remodeled kitchen and breakfast nook with gorgeous white KraftMaid cabinets in solid maple and black stainless steel Samsung appliances. With well appointed light fixtures, gleaming granite, cherry flooring and double doors leading to the deck outside, this is truly the heart of the home. An adjacent formal dining room sits to the left of the kitchen. Up the stairs you'll find 3 bedrooms with ample closet space and a bright full bathroom. The master suite fills one entire end of the home and features a full bathroom with double vanity and walk-in closet with pocket door. Travel back down to the partially finished basement where the "L" shaped room is currently being used for gaming and exercise. An additional bonus room will make the perfect craft space, or storage for your outdoor gear. The unfinished portion of the basement contains the laundry facilities, ample storage space, and a Lenox heat/AC system. Yes, central air! PLUS a whole house humidifier. Sellers are offering $5,000 cash back for new carpeting with an acceptable offer.
