While this cheerful colonial, a project by master builder Lew Barber, is pretty enough for the pages of a magazine, it is also perfectly practical for real life. Nothing is lacking within the manageably sized interior, every inch of which is flawlessly renovated and decorated. Sophisticated colors and subtle patterns join timeless materials for a polished look that’s universally appealing. The newer kitchen is definitely a highlight! Seamless slabs of striking marble provide a natural backdrop for sleek appliances, including a 5-burner Viking range. The dining room is wide open, allowing even more sunlight to permeate the living room, where a spruced-up wood-burning fireplace holds pride of place. The family room is sized just right for cozy nights in front of the TV. Whether it’s toys, games or gym equipment, a finished basement rec room and storage zone keep clutter in check. The laundry, complete with a folding station, was wisely relocated upstairs within easy reach of all 4 bedrooms. Custom organizers maximize closet space and a double vanity keeps essentials stowed away in the hall bath. As for the new primary bath, it offers a spa-like retreat with luxurious finishes, including a large glass-enclosed shower, radiant heat and dual vanity, complete with ample counter space adding both style and functionality. Certainly no afterthought, even outdoor areas were expertly designed, including a bluestone walkway and wide stone steps to the mud entry. The addition of a new roof ensures peace of mind, while a whole house generator promises reliability in any season, keeping your home running smoothly no matter what. A gracefully curved sitting wall defines the patio overlooking an emerald green lawn sloping down to Harry’s Brook, which gently meanders through the idyllic Littlebrook neighborhood.
