Property Description
Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and resting on beautifully landscaped property, this riverfront Colonial is designed for all seasons and every occasion. Enjoy trout fishing and canoe rides during warmer months and ice skating in the winter. Nomahegan Park, pond, biking and jogging trails are within walking distance, while shopping, schools and NYC commuter trains and buses are only minutes from your front door.
Inside, you are greeted by a wonderful collection of light, texture and color. Warm hardwood floors absorb the sunlight pouring in through bay windows while the decor accommodates a wide array of tastes and furnishings. A fireplace takes center stage in the living room, while the dining room is distinguished by dentil moldings, a chair rail and two built-in corner cupboards. French doors lead to a sun room, easily enjoyed throughout the year and a French door takes you out to the deck, backyard and river beyond. The kitchen offers the busy home cook loads of cabinet storage, counter space and appliances arranged for easy access. Space remains for your breakfast table, set beneath a garden window.
Three bedrooms are comfortably positioned on the second level. The master bedroom easily welcomes your larger furniture pieces and a separate sitting area. The full master bath comes well equipped to help simplify your morning routine. The family bedrooms enjoy ample closet storage and are served by the hall bath. Wrapped in wood paneling, the lower level recreation room has lots of space for leisure activities. Storage, utilities and laundry complete this level.
Outside, the paver brick patio easily supports al fresco dining and entertaining. Built-in wood bench seating assures everyone’s comfort. Beautifully landscaped, the backyard welcomes bare feet, active play and offers the avid gardener ample opportunity to exercise a green thumb, while the river is just beyond.
