Description

Rarely Available in this community! What hasn't been updated, remodel or improved? There is a long list... There are so many enhancements to this lovely home with an incredible outdoor setting regarding the 1-acre parcel with a massive 36' x 18' stamped patio located in back of the home (Compass faces True North) including a pergola plus a special fire pit area that is 9' x 9'. These surround a small intimate fish pond which just sets the stage for your new backyard oasis. Added BONUS, don't forget the screened in porch is 15' x19'! But lets explore inside this home. Upon entering this classic R.C. People's Colonial style home which has the extended front porch, the homeowner has made some adjustments to the use of the rooms. But, no need to use this format or stay with the creative ideas. The front living room is currently being used as a dining room for example. Use this spacious room with wood floors and bay window as you wish. The original dining room off the kitchen has been opened up to flow better between the two rooms. The removal of the wall gives you the breakfast bar made of African Zebra wood. The original DR is now staged (literally - raised section to hold the bench seating. This is not mounted and easy to remove) as an expansion of the kitchen and serves as an eat-in kitchen area. Notice the extra details on the main level with the use of crown molding and wainscoting. The kitchen was remolded with hickory wood shaker style cabinets, and red dragon granite countertops. Off the eat-in kitchen section is direct access to the screened in porch through the sliding doors. The family room on the main level has a wood burning brick hearth fireplace giving it the cozy atmosphere feeling. Now, the old laundry room has become a wet bar! Plenty of storage for your glasses, bottles and mixes just ready for the next gathering of family and friends. Next to the wet bar is the remodel powder room with marble floors. The foyer area is finished in Terrazzio tiles that flows into the kitchen. Heading up stairs are four spacious bedrooms with wood floors - some rooms have carpet. The hall bathroom was remodeled in 2023 but wait to you see the ensuite bathroom for the main bedroom! The walk-in shower with double shower heads is spectacular! Nothing like being spoiled... There is a full basement with plenty of storage or use as a work shop. Finished "flex room" in the basement has endless possibilities. Key upgrades - roof 2024, septic inspection done recently with new tanks in spring 2025, windows (most are triple pane with built in shades) and slider replaced in 2012, insulated siding and gutters replaced in 2011 - see attached list for more extensive items. Back outside, you have a vegetable garden, blackberry patch, and sandbox/sand trap area. The property extends past the evergreen trees. There are corner markings in the rear so you can see how spacious this yard is. Cul-de-sac street, all the enhancements, easy access to Route 1, short drive to downtown Middletown... Come see this special home.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
