About this home
Beautifully updated colonial in sought-after Carrcroft is ready to welcome its next owner! This meticulously maintained 4-bedroom, 2.1-bath home showcases timeless charm, thoughtful renovations, and extensive mechanical updates, offering both style and peace of mind. Exceptional curb appeal sets the tone with professionally maintained landscaping, fresh exterior paint, a classic brick and slate walkway, a low-maintenance brick façade, and an extra-wide driveway providing ample parking. Step inside to an inviting foyer that opens to the heart of the home, where exposed oak hardwood flooring extends throughout, adding warmth and timeless character. The stunning, fully updated kitchen is sure to impress with crisp white cabinetry, coordinating countertops, stainless steel appliances, a striking range hood, and a gourmet six-burner natural gas range. The open floor plan flows effortlessly into the spectacular dining room, where soaring cathedral ceilings, a beautiful, exposed brick wall, and a dramatic wall of windows frame picturesque views of the lush backyard while filling the space with natural light. The dining area also provides easy access to the deck, making indoor-outdoor entertaining a breeze. The adjoining family room, currently used as a home office, features a striking wall of custom built-ins and flows into the inviting living room. Here, a cozy natural gas fireplace creates the perfect gathering space, while the adjacent screened porch offers an ideal retreat for morning coffee or relaxing summer evenings. Step outside to enjoy a backyard designed for both relaxation and play. The private setting is enhanced by mature landscaping and thoughtfully placed plantings that provide just the right balance of beauty and privacy without sacrificing open space. The level yard offers plenty of room for outdoor recreation, entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying peaceful afternoons surrounded by nature. Gather with family and friends around the custom-built fire pit, creating the perfect setting for cool evenings and year-round outdoor enjoyment. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms and two full baths, including a beautifully renovated primary ensuite bath that offers a spa-like retreat. A partially finished basement provides additional flexible living space perfect for a recreation room, home gym, media room, or playroom. This home has been thoughtfully updated with major improvements, including a brand-new roof installed in May 2026 with warranty, a new HVAC system installed in 2021 and converted to natural gas, new water heater, a French drain and sump pump installed in 2020, replacement windows throughout most of the home (excluding the dining room), fresh interior and exterior paint, and newly planted privacy trees.
