Description
Welcome to this cherished and lovingly maintained Dutch Colonial in the desirable Saybrook Village -- a planned residential community developed by Alfandre, the builder who went on to create Kentlands.
Inside, this 3-bedroom home, with a living-dining room, family room, and den, welcomes you with an abundance of natural light and gleaming hardwood floors that flow throughout both levels. The living-dining room features a traditional wood beam and built-in shelves. The family room offers vaulted ceilings, a brick fireplace, and a natural wood panel rising to the ceiling above the mantel. The den/ office, with its custom built-in bookshelves, is a perfect space for a study or home office. The kitchen opens to the family room, offering plenty of space, with an additional built-in display cabinet, and a pantry. An entry closet and a half bathroom complete the main level.
The staircase leads to an open landing with built-in shelves and a beautiful overlook into the family room below. The primary bedroom, spacious and filled with light from three windows, features a walk-in closet, a linen closet, and an en-suite bathroom with double sinks and a bathtub. Two additional bedrooms, each with ample built-in closet, share a full hallway bathroom. An unfinished basement offers generous storage and the potential to make it your own.
A covered breezeway connects the house to the patio and garage. A patio and fenced backyard with mature trees, shrubs, and landscaping on three sides offer a private outdoor retreat. The home offers a one-car garage, a driveway accommodating two additional cars, and extra off-street parking just steps away -- all set within a quiet parking area separated from the street by a green buffer and walkway.
Major updates include hardwood floors throughout (2015-2016), a cedar shake roof (2021), air conditioning (2013), and HVAC system (2024).
Saybrooke offers a neighborhood with tree-lined streets and walkways, common greens, walking trails, tennis courts, and a swimming pool. Located just minutes from Shady Grove Metro, served by two bus lines, and with easy access to ICC, Route 370, and I-270.
This is an opportunity to join a neighborhood where owners stay for years -- and to settle into a home that has been cherished with pride.
