This gorgeous new colonial on Auburn St. was designed with all the features to accommodate the needs and desires of today's busy families. It offers a large combination kitchen and family room, elegantly proportioned rooms, a luxurious master suite and three finished levels with ten multi-functional rooms. It was also fabricated with well-appointed details and an abundance of windows that drench every space with natural sunlight.

The most frequently used space on the main level will be the seamless kitchen, casual dining area and family room that stretch the entire width of the house. Each area flows effortlessly into one another, beginning with a 28 x 16 square foot gourmet culinary center equipped with upgraded cabinetry, a wealth of granite surfaces and an oversized center island with seating. A lovely breakfast area links the kitchen with the 19 x 16 square foot fireplaced family room creating an inviting and fluid family circle. A 21 x 15 square foot living room and a 21 x 12 square foot dining area offer gracious options for formal entertaining and holiday gatherings.

The 28 x 16 square foot master suite on the second level provides impressively luxurious accommodations in space and amenities with a walk-in closet, full deluxe bath and a private balcony. This floor also boasts three additional bedrooms at 11 x 12 and 14 x 12 square feet and a 24 x 18 square foot suite. A custom staircase leads to the third story and a contemporary 18 x 21 square foot loft space with a vaulted ceiling and full bath. The finished walk-out lower level is an ideal destination for a children's playroom or exercise.

This home was also built with many structural conveniences, including a three-zone radiant heating system, two-zone central air conditioning, a two-car attached garage and a sprinkler system. Even its location offers beneficial advantages within walking distance to schools, parks and public transportation.
