RARELY AVAILABLE IN SYLVAN PARK! This stately, beautifully upgraded home offers the perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and exceptional outdoor living, all tucked away on a premium wooded lot that provides a wonderful sense of privacy while keeping you minutes from everything you need. From the moment you step inside,… Read More the grand two-story foyer makes a statement, featuring beautiful ceramic marble-look tile and an impressive butterfly staircase with hardwood treads. Continue toward the rear of the home and you'll discover the dramatic two-story family room, complete with a gas fireplace and an abundance of natural light. Just off the family room is a versatile office/flex room with an adjacent full bath, offering an ideal option for a first-floor guest suite, in-law accommodations, home office, or private retreat for anyone who prefers first-floor living. The beautifully appointed kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, ceramic tile flooring, and a center island, with plenty of workspace for everyday cooking and entertaining. Upstairs, the exceptionally spacious primary suite is truly a retreat. The large hardwood-floor bedroom flows into a separate sitting room, creating a peaceful space for reading, relaxing, or simply getting away from it all. Two walk-in closets provide abundant storage, while the beautifully renovated primary bath feels like a private spa, featuring a dramatic oversized shower and luxurious freestanding soaking tub. No expense was spared in the renovation. Three additional generously sized bedrooms, all with hardwood flooring, provide plenty of room for family, guests, or additional office space. The hall bath is another standout, showcasing designer Ralph Lauren tile on both the walls and floor - a beautiful renovation that reflects the level of care found throughout this home. And then there's the backyard... this is where this home truly comes alive. Step outside to a beautiful paver patio and your own heated, in-ground swimming pool, surrounded by privacy, fencing and backing to the woods. At the pool steps, built-in jets transform that section into a relaxing spa-like Jacuzzi area - perfect for unwinding after a long day or entertaining friends and family. The pool is also illuminated for beautiful evening enjoyment. The thoughtful extras continue with an underground sprinkler system, a water softener, and pool equipment and patio furnishings included, making this outdoor oasis ready to enjoy. And for additional peace of mind, the home inspection has already been completed, with items addressed and corrected. The stucco inspection report also came back with flying colors - no repairs were needed! This is a home where the pride of ownership is immediately apparent. The owner didn't simply maintain the property - he invested in it, upgraded it, and added custom touches, including work thoughtfully incorporated during the original construction. Despite its private, tucked-away setting, the location is incredibly convenient, with easy access to Route 1, I-95, restaurants, the train station, and everyday amenities, all just minutes away. A premium wooded setting. Beautiful custom upgrades. Incredible indoor and outdoor living. A heated pool and spa, and a home that has been lovingly cared for. Opportunities like this in Sylvan Park don't come along often. Come see it for yourself - you may walk through the door and immediately know you've found the one you've been waiting for! Read Less
