This beautiful Colonial Revival is located on an impressive .34-acre lot in Wesley Heights. The charming front façade is accented with a lovely front archway and is complemented by the layered professional landscaping, providing the residence with commanding curb appeal. The house has been beautifully updated and offers high-quality finishes and materials throughout. It is flooded with an abundance of natural light from large windows, which is further amplified by the high ceilings. Generously proportioned rooms and a seamless flow from indoors to outdoors make the house perfect for entertaining. The main level has a gracious front foyer which leads to the elegant living room with a wood burning fireplace. The living room neighbors the fully updated office/family room, which offers heated floors, custom built-ins, and access to the rear yard and garden. The generous dining room is located directly off the kitchen. The gourmet kitchen has been fully renovated and includes a large quartz stone center island with a breakfast bar, high-end stainless-steel appliances, marble countertops, a custom built-in pantry, and a separate side entrance with a mudroom. The kitchen adjoins the sunny breakfast/family room. A spectacular sunroom/gallery with new hardwood floors at the back of the house connects the main rooms to the garden terrace and provides access to the lower level. There is also a newly renovated powder room on this level. The second level offers five bedrooms and four full bathrooms, including the luxurious primary suite. The primary bedroom is spacious and has a private balcony with lovely views of the expansive rear yard.
