Read the full listing description
Located along a charming and quiet block in coveted North Stamford, this gorgeous 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath family home puts you at the heart of all the best the area has to offer. Fully renovated in 2017, the open concept floorplan includes gorgeous hardwood floors that run throughout the first level. The main entryway opens into a large foyer that sits between a massive living room and a more intimate den space versatile enough to function as a home office, both of which are anchored by elegant, relaxing fireplaces. Five separate closets line the halls as you move toward the rear of the home, where you’ll find a mudroom, laundry room, full bath, and a powder room all located just off the separate entrance from the generous two-car garage. The true highlight, however, might be the sun-drenched open kitchen facing the yard, which takes in a huge floating marble countertop, a stainless steel double-door fridge, stacked ovens, and an adjacent dining room area. All four bedrooms occupy the second level, including the primary bedroom, which has a full, private bathroom with a glass-encased shower. Additional storage can be found in the basement, which can be finished. The sweeping front and back yard space offers unlimited potential for family gatherings and plenty of space for kids to unwind. As an added bonus, the home also includes central air. When you’re looking to escape, the location puts you central to some of the area’s best golf courses, country clubs, and public parks.
