Inside, you'll find a spacious family room featuring a wood-burning stove insert, vaulted beamed ceilings, and an open-concept layout connecting the kitchen and dining area. Just off the kitchen is an oversized utility/laundry room with endless possibilities-it could easily serve as a home office, mudroom, hobby space, or expanded pantry, complete with a large walk-in pantry. The true showstopper is the expansive vaulted sunroom overlooking the private backyard, bringing in natural light and offering peaceful views of the surrounding landscape. Outdoors, mature blueberry bushes grace the front yard, providing seasonal fruit and adding to the property's country charm and privacy. All of the bedrooms are generously sized with large walk-in closets.
