Serenity awaits you at this beautifully-maintained colonial in a private country setting. In the heart of the home is a nice open floor plan with the kitchen flowing to a family room and sitting area that runs the full length of the first floor. The custom woodwork, columns and paneling add to the warmth of the space. After a nice day of hiking or cross country skiing on the near by trails, you'll be ready to relax by the beautiful fireplace. With 35,000 BTUs and a thermostatic remote, you'll be cozy in any weather. And the wood burning stove in the basement makes the whole first floor toasty in the winter. While the floor plan is open, there are still plenty of private areas for family members to work or study from home. The bonus room above the garage is currently used as the main master suite, but the space offers the flexibility for other purposes such as a home office or home school. If you love the sounds of nature you’ll love the beautiful grounds. In the backyard there is a large deck overlooking the level backyard with another gathering place around a fire pit. In the front yard, sit on your patio with its whimsical rain chain and copper pot for a totally different view of the natural surroundings. Come experience all that Guilford has to offer - including the quaint town center with its picturesque green, shops and restaurants. You’ll enjoy the quiet location in North Guilford while appreciating the proximity to the train station, marina, and public beach.
