Located in popular Paley Farms neighborhood, this beautiful Colonial has the best of both worlds - set back from the road on almost 2 acres of land and still part of the community! The current owner has upgraded this home inside and out with only top quality materials including Fibercement siding and stone accents, newer windows and doors and 40 year architectural shingle roof. Step into the front door to the open concept living and dining rooms with dark hardwood flooring overlooking the low maintenance deck and yard. A gas fireplace in the living room adds a cozy touch. An updated white kitchen with granite counters and stainless appliances leads into the generous family room with vaulted ceiling to the side of the house. The first floor powder room is conveniently located between the foyer and garage access. Upstairs, the oversized primary bedroom with ensuite bath has an updated bathroom, walk-in closet and access to the 2nd floor wraparound deck that overlooks the side and front yards - enjoy the beautiful scenery and sunset views. Two additional bedrooms share an updated bath on this level, along with a 2nd floor laundry. The lower level features additional living space of approx 325 SF, currently used as a rec room but would make great home office. A whole house generator and custom shed adds to the appeal of this meticulously maintained property. Convenient location less than mile to the Glastonbury town line make this the ideal place to call home!
