Read the full listing description

This meticulously maintained 4BR center hall Colonial home is both wonderfully private, yet located only moments to town in the desirable Farmingville area. From the hardwood floors, neutral color palette, large bright windows & fabulous location perched at the top of a ridge, it’s no wonder the owners have lived here since it was originally built! Gorgeous tree-filled views are available from every room. The Foyer opens to a Living Rm w/a bay window on one side & a spacious Dining Rm on the other, which looks through to the eat-in Kitchen w/stainless steel appliances, hand-made tile backsplash & granite counters. A lovely Deck overlooks 30+ acres of open space, never to be developed. An adjoining Family Rm w/a wood-burning fireplace + a Half Bath & Laundry complete this floor. Upstairs, the large Master Suite incl a vaulted ceiling, WIC & an updated Bath. The 3 add'l BRs feature hardwood floors & have access to a beautiful hall bath. The finished, walk-out lower level Recreation Rm also provides add'l flex space for a guest room, office or hang-out space. The property itself is a great mix of beauty & functionality. Multiple level lawn areas allow for all manner of fun, while mature trees & perennial plantings surround them. Underground sprinklers mean everything stays healthy throughout even the hottest months. A whole house generator also joins a new 50-year roof, central air conditioning, central vac & numerous other updates. Move in ready- what are you waiting for?!
