Description

Not one but two. Renowned architect, Jack Franzen and builder, Frank Dooley, applied their respective talents to design and build this consummate colonial on just over two acres at various times in its' history. The result is a home that is both openly warm and noticeably refined. Anchored by beautiful hardwood flooring and custom millwork throughout, every space and room feels like an invitation to gather round and settle in. The sun-filled eat-in kitchen opens to one of two decks. The formal living...Not one but two. Renowned architect, Jack Franzen and builder, Frank Dooley, applied their respective talents to design and build this consummate colonial on just over two acres at various times in its' history. The result is a home that is both openly warm and noticeably refined. Anchored by beautiful hardwood flooring and custom millwork throughout, every space and room feels like an invitation to gather round and settle in. The sun-filled eat-in kitchen opens to one of two decks. The formal living room returns the favor with French doors to a large screened-in porch. The welcoming family has french doors opening up to the second deck. The bedrooms are spacious and generous. An expansive study with cathedral ceiling, skylights and full bath offers the versatility of a private 5th bedroom. Plus over 1000 square feet of additional living space in partially finished basement for all ages to enjoy. And when there's a desire for a quiet oasis, an exquisite separate studio to express your inner artist, your entrepreneurial spirit or simply to read a good book. Situated in lower Greenfield Hill with easy access to I95 is just 55 miles to midtown Manhattan. A special home to call your own.
