At its center, the kitchen is both refined and functional, appointed with stainless steel appliances, granite counters, a deep farmhouse sink, and solid hickory cabinetry. It opens seamlessly to the expansive dining and living area, where a wood-burning fireplace lends warmth, character, and an inviting focal point for gathering. Solid oak floors run throughout, while windows frame the surrounding greenery and shifting seasonal landscape. The main level also offers a private bedroom, generous den or home office, full bath, and mudroom with custom storage, along with a covered porch that extends the living experience outdoors for quiet mornings or aprs ski evenings. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is joined by two additional bedrooms and a second full bath, creating comfortable accommodations for guests and everyday living alike. With its sought-after location, thoughtful updates, and beautifully balanced layout, this is a compelling Manchester offering defined by comfort, charm, and enduring appeal.
