Built in 2017 and tucked away in a desirable newer cul-de-sac neighborhood near the Merrimack River, this beautifully maintained Colonial offers an exceptional combination of space, comfort, and outdoor living. Inside, the bright, sun-filled floor plan features hardwood flooring throughout the first floor. The spacious eat-in kitchen opens to a large deck and flows seamlessly into the inviting family room, highlighted by a fireplace and vaulted ceiling. A formal living room, formal dining room, powder room, and separate first-floor laundry room complete the main level. Upstairs, the generous primary suite features a beautifully appointed private bath, while three additional bedrooms and another full bath provide plenty of space for family and guests. The completely finished walkout lower level adds outstanding versatility with an expansive family room, bar area, and additional space for entertaining, recreation, a home gym, or office. Outside, the fully fenced backyard is a private retreat featuring a heated saltwater in-ground pool, spacious patio, fire pit, and raised garden beds-an incredible setting for relaxing and entertaining. Ideally located just two minutes from the highway for commuters, convenient to shopping, and only minutes from downtown Newburyport and area beaches. The home is also part of the sought-after Pentucket Regional School District, featuring a new state-of-the-art middle-high school campus.
