Offered for the first time in 23 years, this beautifully maintained home combines comfort, efficiency and an exceptional outdoor setting. A standout feature is the private, fully fenced backyard, thoughtfully designed to feel like a retreat with an impressive inground pool, spacious newer rear deck and fire pit area, all creating an ideal setting for relaxing and entertaining. The property has benefited from numerous meaningful updates in recent years, including the roof, owned solar system, vinyl replacement windows, driveway, garage doors, well pump and hot water tank. The home is heated entirely by electric, and the owned solar system helps significantly offset energy costs, often minimizing or eliminating a monthly electric bill. A Mass Save energy audit has also been completed, further contributing to the home's efficiency. An oversized two-car garage offers excellent parking, storage and workspace. With its extensive updates, energy-conscious features and beautifully enclosed backyard setting, this is a property that offers both everyday practicality and a wonderful place to enjoy at home.
