Welcome to your secret garden wonderland. As you pass nearby parks and turn onto secluded Merton Rd, time slows enough to hear the birds and wind in the trees. Park in a wide driveway or 2-car garage and enter the mid-century slate hall. Like Alice, you'll find a home that's larger than it first appears. You're on the bedroom level! This unique layout contributes to the private feel of the home. Before descending, take in 4 bright bedrooms. Do you see a future home office? The light is so glorious that you may want blackout blinds on occasion (already here!). Lining the open living area below is a wall of windows overlooking a lush yard. Imagine guests floating in from a garden party or curling up next to the wood-burning fireplace. Outside, a large deck between the family room and kitchen door is ideal for al fresco summer suppers. Practical minds will appreciate a zoned HVAC system, 2021 roof, 2022 sewer liner, and easy access to 279. Do you hear a staycation calling your name?
