### Agent Description
Historic 4,500+ SQ FT Colonial Near Wing Park!Nestled on a rare, massive double lot, this pristine 2-story historic Colonial boasts 2,998 sq ft of sun-drenched living space plus a finished 1,594 sq ft basement. Original hardwood floors run throughout the expansive layout, featuring a formal dining room, a cozy sitting room with built-in surround sound, and a sun-drenched gourmet kitchen equipped with granite counters and stainless steel appliances. Elegant French doors lead to a bright Florida room with original wood built-ins, while a rare first-floor 5th bedroom offers a perfect luxury home office. Modern updates blend seamlessly with classic character, featuring a multi-zoned dual A/C cooling system for the whole house and premium second-floor windows just 5 years new. Upstairs, the primary retreat offers a massive walk-in closet and a spa bath with a deep soaker tub, separate walk-in shower, and double sinks. The ultimate lower-level entertainment hub features two huge rec rooms with a custom bar, a workshop, and a laundry room with all appliances included. Outside, the sprawling grounds boast a massive 2-tier deck, a fenced yard, a garden patio, a functional shed, a 2.5-car detached garage, and an extensive driveway with an additional concrete pad. Move-in ready and exceptionally maintained!
