This classic colonial in the coveted Dogwood neighborhood (hello, St. Cloud School district!) is the perfect blend of charm and comfort. The set-back, park-like lot and impressive entry give the home a standout presence without feeling over-the-top. Inside, it's all about warmth and flow. The familyroom is ready for cozy nights, with a wood-burning fireplace, and a bay window that lets the light flood in. From there, you're into the dining room, where glass sliders open up to the patio and yard. The kitchen is bright and easy, with stainless steel appliances and granite counters that make cooking feel less like a chore. Need a moment? The living room is perfect for curling up with a book. And then there's the sunroom your zen-like, go-to spot for coffee, daydreaming, or just staring at the backyard in all its glory. The first floor also checks all the practical boxes with a large bedroom/ WFH space, powder room and laundry room. Bonus points for recessed lighting and lots of storage. Upstairs, a roomy primary is ensuite and has tons of closet space, while two more generously sized beds and another full bath keep everyone comfy. Basement is where function meets style, with decorative ceiling panels and quality finishes that make it a space you'll actually use.Outside is a backyard oasis; a space that feels just as good hosting friends as it does unwinding after a long day. Close to NYC bus, JCC and wonderful Turtle Back Zoo with ropes course, mini golf and gorgeous lake.
