Some homes are designed for gathering, others for slowing down. This Stratford ranch strikes the perfect balance. Set back from the road on a picturesque lot, this inviting home offers the ease of one-level living with a layout that feels connected yet private. A covered front porch with Trex decking and a charming swing creates a warm welcome and the perfect place to start or end the day. Hardwood floors extend through the main living spaces, where a bay window fills the living room with natural light, and a fireplace creates a welcoming focal point before flowing seamlessly into the dining area. Just beyond, a distinctive family room serves as the heart of the home, featuring vaulted ceilings and skylights, built-in bookshelves, and a large window overlooking the peaceful backyard. Whether envisioned as a family room, study, or creative retreat, this versatile space adapts to your lifestyle. Tucked away from the main living areas, a dedicated bedroom wing provides a sense of privacy, highlighted by a primary bedroom with a walk-in closet and private half bath. Thoughtful storage throughout includes a hallway pantry with potential for first-floor laundry. The backyard invites you to linger, with a covered rear deck overlooking the yard, a second porch swing, outdoor dining space, and a gas hookup for grilling. A backyard shed provides additional storage, while the beautifully maintained grounds offer the perfect setting for both lively gatherings and quiet evenings at home.
