Overview
Charming Colonial in Dorsey Hall, lovingly maintained by the original owner, set on nearly half an acre in a tranquil, woodsy setting. Lush landscaping and meandering stepping-stone paths lead to multiple entrances, while vibrant blue shutters add timeless curb appeal.
Inside, the bright and airy traditional floor plan has been thoughtfully updated and is enhanced by sophisticated crown molding, trim, and wainscoting details throughout. The grand foyer opens to a spacious formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace, coffered ceilings, and hardwood floors. French doors reveal a well-appointed study with exposed beams, custom built-in bookcases and cabinetry, and bay windows with potential for a cozy window seat. On the opposite side of the foyer, the formal dining room is accented by hardwood floors and a classic chandelier, leading into the inviting eat-in kitchen. Here, a center island with breakfast bar seating and pendant lighting complements the stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, stone backsplash, and breakfast room with bay windows and sliding doors to the exterior. A powder room and a convenient laundry room complete the main level.
Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms await, including the expansive primary suite with a wood-burning fireplace, custom walk-in closet system, and a luxurious attached bath featuring a Roman tub, makeup station, dual vanities, a separate water closet, and a beautifully tiled shower with a built-in bench. The bathroom also offers dual hallway access for added functionality. Secondary bedrooms provide generous space, with one offering three closets, and another offering two. The walk-up lower level presents a large recreation room with plush carpet, built-in bookcases, track lighting, and a see-through window overlooking a versatile bonus room—ideal as a music room, recording studio, or creative space. Above the garage, a newly finished loft with vaulted ceilings and a full bathroom provide endless possibilities as a fifth bedroom, guest suite, or lounge/entertaining area.
Outdoor living is equally inviting with a spacious back deck perfect for multiple seating areas, all overlooking the private backyard. A meandering path of stepping stones guides you to a delightful covered brick porch, offering serene spaces to enjoy the natural surroundings. This porch also features a convenient second entry just steps from the kitchen, garage, and loft.
