Description:

Storybook transformation into a bright and open 4BR/4.5BA three-level colonial with an old-fashioned front porch and off-street parking in Georgetown Village, just one block from the elementary school. Following expansions and renovations in 2022 and 2026, the home nearly doubled in size, now offering over 4,800 square feet of living space across three levels, including a lower-level in-law/au pair suite. Fine craftsmanship, unique design, and quality materials define this showpiece home, highlighted by an expansive kitchen/dining/great room; newly refinished hardwood flooring throughout the main and upper levels; fully renovated bathrooms with designer porcelain and ceramic tile; custom painting; upgraded and recessed lighting; new designer carpeting and LVP flooring on the lower level. Andersen windows, along with a newer roof and siding, add lasting value. The outdoor space is equally impressive, featuring professional landscaping with manicured beds, a newly fenced yard, a newly constructed TimberTech deck with wrought iron railings, and a private sunken patio with access to a storage room. Cobblestone paver walkway and flagstone steps lead to the covered front porch with composite decking, beaded ceiling, vinyl railings, and recessed lighting. Glass front door with side transoms opens into the foyer and living room, which features a wood-burning fireplace and a bay window. Flexible study or dining room with glass French doors opens to a hallway with a separate exterior side entrance and a corridor to the kitchen. The open-concept chef’s kitchen features self-closing white Shaker-style cabinetry with pull-out drawers, quartz countertops, a tumbled tile backsplash, a porcelain farmhouse sink with a box window ledge, champagne-bronze fixtures, upgraded appliances, a commercial-range hood, and ample pantry space. The center island with a quartz waterfall edge and cage lighting opens to the informal dining area and great room, featuring abundant windows, rear double French doors to the deck, a built-in linear electric fireplace, and custom bookshelves. Renovated powder room completes the main level. Solid-wood staircase with a carpet runner leads upstairs to a hallway with a designer chandelier, recessed lighting, and a linen closet. The open loft area—ideal for a playroom, exercise space, or media room—features a glass sliding barn door to the laundry room. The primary suite offers recessed lighting, a ceiling fan, a separate sitting area with a linear electric fireplace, and a custom walk-in closet with built-ins. The renovated primary bath includes large-format porcelain tile flooring, a double vanity with a marble top, a separate water closet, and an oversized walk-in shower with a frameless glass enclosure. Two additional bedrooms with ceiling fans and recessed lighting, along with a remodeled hall bath featuring tile flooring, a granite vanity, and a porcelain-tile tub surround, finish the upper level. The walk-out lower level includes a recreation room with new carpeting, built-in bookshelves, and a full bath. A step-down leads to the private in-law/au pair suite with its own glass-door side entrance, LVP flooring, second laundry hookup, bedroom with a walk-in closet, and a full porcelain-tile bath with a zero-entry, curbless shower. The suite’s full daylight living area includes recessed lighting, a linear electric fireplace, a full kitchen, and French doors opening to the sunken concrete patio with the deck above. A storage room is accessible from the patio. Three zones of heating and cooling (2018 and 2022), along with newer roof, siding, and gutters (2022), complete this exceptional offering.
