What if coming home felt a little more like a getaway? With over an acre, an incredible screened porch and backyard gathering space, generously sized rooms, a finished basement-and major updates already taken care of-this Wethersfield Colonial gives you plenty of reasons to come take a look. One of the biggest? A BRAND-NEW SEPTIC SYSTEM is currently being installed and paid for by the seller, HVAC replaced in 2024 and roof replaced in 2021. Set on a little over an acre in one of Medford's most desirable neighborhoods, this classic 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Center Hall Colonial has been lovingly cared for by the same owners since 1999. Inside, generously sized rooms and a traditional layout offer plenty of space and flexibility. The kitchen and family room feature wide-plank walnut hardwood flooring, with a large kitchen peninsula and stainless steel appliances. The adjoining family room, with exposed beams and a wood-burning fireplace, is a warm and inviting gathering place. French doors from both the kitchen area and family room open to one of the home's biggest highlights-the expansive three-season screened porch stretching across the entire back of the house. This is a backyard meant to be enjoyed. From morning coffee on the screened porch to dinner on the patio and evenings gathered around the built-in fire pit, this space was made for both entertaining and unwinding. Newer Trex decking connects the outdoor spaces, while the wooded, partially fenced yard provides plenty of room to enjoy the one-acre setting. It's easy to understand why the owners have always felt as though they were living in their own private park. Traditional living and dining rooms with beautiful bay windows provide even more room to gather. A bonus room with sliding barn door offers flexibility as a home office, playroom, workout room or oversized pantry, while a first-floor laundry room and renovated powder room complete the main level. Upstairs are four comfortable bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with separate vanity areas, garden tub and newer stall shower. The finished basement adds even more usable space for recreation, movie nights, hobbies, a home office and storage. Bob Meyer Park and its playground are at the end of the street, and Wethersfield's low-traffic streets are ideal for walks and bike rides. Medford adds its own special appeal with small-town charm, local shops and restaurants, seasonal events, community traditions, lakes, parks and outdoor recreation-the kind of town where traditions are still celebrated and neighbors still come together. Come see it in person and imagine the life that could happen here-holidays around the fireplace, summer evenings on the screened porch, friends gathered around the fire pit, walks to the park and plenty of room inside and out to make it your own.
