Set in the heart of Forest Avenue, this beautifully renovated and impeccably maintained Center Hall Colonial checks every box.

The living room opens to the family room and 3 season room overlooking the backyard, perfect for a playroom or home office. Off of the dining room, the eat-in kitchen features custom wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and brand new quartz countertops, all overlooking a patio and professionally landscaped backyard perfect for everyday living and entertaining. A powder room and back entry complete the first floor. On the second floor, the spacious primary suite offers three closets and a renovated en-suite bath. Three additional bedrooms with generous closet space and a renovated hall bath complete the second level. The third floor adds even more flexibility with an additional bedroom, a full bath, and a large storage area with an oversized closet. The finished basement extends the living space with a recreation room featuring built-ins, a wet bar with refrigerator, an exercise room, a full bath, and a finished laundry room. Thoughtful upgrades include front and back sprinkler systems, landscape lighting, and central air conditioning. Forest Avenue offers a true community feel, with its famous trick-or-treating as well as unbeatable convenience with NYC commute options from MidTown Direct train and bus service.
