A grand 2 story Colonial, this home sits on one of the prettiest lots in the entire community. Watch the sparkle of sunlight over the pond as you sip your morning coffee on the brick patio. Explore the grounds. Meander over the footbridge enjoying the splendor of the Weeping Cherry Trees. Stroll through the woodsy paths or follow the stone walkway through the pines to collect your mail curbside. There are so many hidden treasures here! Spring brings forth a virtual rainbow of color in Azalea, Rhododendron & Peonies to name just a few & the crimson colors of Fall have long provided inspiration for the Artist owner. That 1st floor room with the panoramic view of the pond served as an Art Studio for years. What will you do with such an inspiring space?
