Property Description

A rare Forest Hills retreat offering privacy, space, and exceptional versatility! Tucked into a lush, park-like setting on approximately 1.2 acres comprised of two lots, this beautifully updated and meticulously maintained 5-bedroom, 4-bath Cape Cod offers approximately 5,475 sq. ft. of warm, inviting living space. The heart of the home is the impressive gourmet kitchen featuring an expansive island with seating, granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, six-burner gas cooktop with pot filler, wall oven, convection microwave, heated tile floors, two walk-in pantries, and a built-in planning station/coffee bar. Generous formal living and dining areas provide wonderful space for entertaining, while a cozy den with beautiful built-ins and a massive fireplace leads to a light-filled sunroom surrounded by walls of windows overlooking the picturesque backyard--a peaceful space to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. The main-level primary suite spans the width of the home and is truly a retreat, offering a private sitting room, impressive dressing/walk-in closet, and luxurious bath with heated floors, two sink areas, soaking tub, abundant storage, and walk-in steam shower. An additional bedroom and full bath complete this wing. Upstairs are two more bedrooms, including a second primary suite with abundant closet space and a versatile gathering area ideal for an office, reading room, or nursery. The recently updated lower-level apartment adds incredible flexibility with an enormous living area, extra-large bedroom, full bath, kitchen, and abundant storage--ideal for extended family, guests, or separate living quarters. Outside is where this property becomes truly unforgettable. Mature trees surround a wonderfully private backyard with a patio, courtyard, pergola, gazebo, and fenced areas including a pet run. The second lot features a playhouse/potting or storage shed with a 60-amp panel, plus dedicated RV parking. Additional improvements include a recently replaced roof and gutters, encapsulated crawl space with dehumidifiers, tankless water heater, spacious two-car garage, and numerous updated fixtures and finishes throughout. Private yet convenient, spacious yet welcoming, this exceptional Forest Hills property offers the feeling of a peaceful retreat with all the comforts of home. An absolute must-see!
