Belmont Hill at its finest. Tucked into a serene, peaceful setting, this oversized, multi-level home offers the kind of warmth and flexibility buyers are always hoping to find. Arched openings create a natural flow while still giving each space its own identity. The front living room feels more like a library retreat with a fireplace. Just behind, the casual family room offers the perfect spot to spread out, watch a game, or simply relax. The dining room with built-ins connects seamlessly to the oversized kitchen, which overlooks the spacious backyard. The first level offers one bedroom with an en-suite bath, plus two additional bedrooms and a family bath. Upstairs, the primary suite feels tucked away with a large closet and private en-suite bath. The lower level offers fantastic bonus space, including a playroom/media room, laundry, and a half bath. Outside, beautiful gardens and a lovely patio create the perfect backdrop for al-fresco dinners or quiet mornings
