A special opportunity in Monroe! This impressive open-plan home with a gorgeous finished basement on a private fenced lot (with dog run!) offers more privacy over a ''development'' home. This 10 year young elegant colonial offers a two story foyer; living and dining rooms; terrific family room with a gas fireplace and custom built-ins; and a huge open kitchen with island overlooking a cathedral-ceiling breakfast room with access to a CUSTOM BUILT covered porch. Upstairs, enjoy a primary suite with sitting area, spa bath w/freestanding tub; 3 additional bedrooms AND upstairs laundry. The basement is truly amazing with plenty of zones for fun PLUS a chic built-in bar; a gorgeous full bath, a custom ''doggie room'' and a FULL WALK OUT to the deluxe yard with pavers and fire pit. In addition, the basement bar is plumbed, and offers fun custom ceiling lighting. There's a HUGE basement storage room that also holds utilities. Custom "doggie room" was built to to house dogs but of course could also be a delightful child's play space too! Additional highlights include recessed lighting in most major rooms; 9 ft first floor ceilings; hardwood throughout first floor; walk-in pantry; mud room with closet, multiple additional first level closets; oversized two car garage with high ceilings, storage racks and electric car capable outlet in the garage!
