In the heart of Waban, this beautifully maintained, thoughtfully updated and expansive Colonial offers over 4,000 sq ft of versatile living space across four finished levels, plus an attached 2-car garage. Oriented east to west, the home enjoys an ideal abundance of natural light throughout the day. At its heart is an expanded chef’s kitchen featuring a large quartz island, generous cabinetry and workspace, stainless appliances, gas cooking with vented hood, wine refrigerator, two beverage drawers and stylish pendant lighting. The gracious main level is equally suited to everyday living and entertaining, with a spacious fireplaced living room featuring custom built-ins and crown molding, and an oversized dining room connected to the kitchen by French doors. New hardwood floors, a powder room, flexible sunroom opening to the fenced backyard and side yard, and a mudroom with direct garage access complete the first floor. Upstairs are 3-4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, laundry and a large cedar closet. The sun-filled primary suite offers custom built-ins, multiple closets, a skylit dressing area and a spa-like bath with double vanity, soaking tub, steam shower and private water closet. A renovated secondary bath features a rain shower, hand wand and modern vanity. Two additional spacious bedrooms, an open office/reading area, plus a separately accessed bedroom/flex room with coveted 2nd floor laundry, ideal for guests, nanny, office or gym complete the level. The finished third floor offers two more bedrooms, an updated full bath and generous closets—ideal for extended family, guests or home offices. The bright renovated lower level features excellent ceiling height and white oak-style LVP flooring, creating terrific space for a playroom, media room, gym or recreation. Central heat and A/C serve all but the third floor, which has separate electric heat and wall A/Cs; electrical service is 200 amp. Beautifully landscaped grounds feature a fenced yard, landscape lighting, irrigation, garden area, patio, hard-plumbed gas grill, roof heating coils and all new fresh exterior paint. Great location near the green line T (D line) to the Longwood Medical area and downtown and easy access to Newton/Wellesley Mass General Brigham hospital as well as Angier Elementary, Waban shops, Windsor Club, and Cold Springs Park, plus much more. A home that can't be missed!
