This beautifully maintained Colonial combines timeless design with a relaxed coastal feel.

This property boasts one of the neighborhood's only large, flat backyards perfect for hosting summer gatherings and providing the ultimate outdoor living space. Inside,9 ft ceilings and wide plank gleaming floors anchor the main level, paired with an open floor plan that flows effortlessly from the updated kitchen into generous living and dining spaces. A built-in entertainment center offers room for equipment and a home library, while a dedicated home office adds everyday flexibility. Just off the main living area, a large screened porch opens to a deck overlooking the large gunite pool and expansive backyard, creating a seamless indoor to outdoor connection that is hard to find. The backyard is truly a standout. Flat, private, and thoughtfully designed, it feels like a personal retreat with a seated firepit area, gunite pool, playground space, and a larTge shed. The walkout basement features a separate entrance and 8-foot ceilings. The finished lower level is designed for everyday living and entertaining, featuring a spacious game and gathering area anchored by a well-appointed kitchenette with sink, cabinetry, and refrigerator.

A full bathroom on this level adds flexibility, while an adjacent flex space offers ideal use as a second living area, guest retreat, or private space for a family member. With thoughtful finishes and multiple functional zones, the lower level lives like an extension of the main home. Over the years, the home has seen significant upgrades, including a new HVAC system serving the main floor and basement in 2026, a new pool pump and refreshed front porch steps in 2025, and the LeafFilter gutter guards replaced in 2024 with a transferable lifetime warranty. Major improvements continue throughout the timeline with LVP flooring on the main level in 2023, a replaced well in 2020, renovated guest and primary baths, hardwood floors upstairs, a renovated kitchen with appliances, a hybrid 80 gallon water heater, and a 30 year architectural roof installed in 2016. This is a home that has been carefully improved, thoughtfully enjoyed, and designed for both everyday living and memorable gatherings.
