Open House Saturday, April 19th 12-3 and Sunday, April 20th from 12-3. Welcome to this beautifully updated 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offering over 3,300 square feet of living space, ideally situated on a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly sought-after community of Thornton Woods. This charming center hall colonial greets you with a bright, open foyer and gleaming hardwood floors throughout the main level. To your right, you'll find a formal living room, while a spacious dining room sits to the left—perfect for hosting gatherings and celebrations. The heart of the home features a newly renovated gourmet kitchen with crisp white cabinetry, granite countertops, a stylish backsplash, and brand-new stainless steel appliances. The kitchen island provides ample prep space, while corner windows over the sink bring in an abundance of natural light. A convenient powder room and main-level laundry—offering access to the two-car garage—add to the home's thoughtful design. Open to the kitchen is a warm and inviting family room with a cozy gas fireplace—ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Step through the newer sliding glass doors to a large Trex deck with vinyl railings and stairs leading to a spacious, fully fenced backyard that backs to trees—offering privacy and a serene outdoor retreat. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, all with brand-new plush, neutral carpeting. The impressive primary suite boasts cathedral ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a luxurious en-suite bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. The finished walk-out lower level offers even more living space with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, a full bathroom, a true fifth bedroom or office with built-ins and windows, and a large recreation room. Glass sliders lead to a stunning stone patio with built-in seating and lighting—perfect for evenings by the fire pit and roasting marshmallows under the stars. Additional updates include: fresh paint throughout, a new roof, new stairs off the deck, new privacy fencing, and all-new appliances including the stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, washer and dryer. Though tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, this home is just minutes from shopping, dining, schools, entertainment, places of worship, and major commuter routes—offering both convenience and comfort.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
