About 139 Forest Ave
Thoughtfully updated and beautifully maintained, this home offers an easy, functional layout paired with an exceptional amount of private outdoor space. The updated open-concept kitchen flows naturally into the living areas, creating a comfortable setting for everyday life and entertaining. A spacious living room with fireplace provides an inviting place to gather, while hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and Pella windows add warmth and a polished feel throughout. A bright sunroom offers valuable flexibility as a home office, reading room or quiet retreat. Downstairs, the semi-finished basement extends the usable living space with options for a recreation room, gym, media area or casual family room. Utility, laundry, workspace, and storage complete the basement. Outside, the double lot truly sets this property apart. The expansive, flat, park-like backyard offers a wonderful sense of privacy and space rarely found this close to town. A paver patio creates a natural extension of the living areas for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the surroundings. The updated kitchen and baths, central air, and a new roof add to the ease of ownership, while nearby shopping, parks and town conveniences keep everyday destinations close at hand.
