Property Description

Welcome to 1696 Highland Ave, where refined design meets effortless living. Completely reimagined and rebuilt in 2015 (foundation excluded), this exceptional home offers an open-concept layout with 4 bedrooms, 4.1 bathrooms, a fully finished basement, EV-ready 2-car garage, brick paver patio, and numerous upgrades. The main level features light-filled living and dining areas that connect to the kitchen. Anchored by an elegant fireplace, the living room invites relaxation, while the dining room easily accommodates large gatherings. The kitchen showcases dark cabinetry, neutral countertops, a single-basin stainless sink, Culligan reverse osmosis system, and a full suite of stainless appliances. A well-placed powder room adds convenience, and a flexible room nearby can serve as an office or reading room. Gleaming hardwood floors span the main and upper levels, providing warmth and continuity. Upstairs, the primary suite impresses with double closets and an en suite spa-like bathroom featuring dual sinks, an oversized shower, and a separate whirlpool tub. One secondary bedroom includes a private full bathroom, while two other bedrooms share a dual-access bathroom. A laundry closet completes this level for everyday ease. The finished basement extends the living space with soft carpeting, a versatile bonus room, a full bathroom with steam shower, and a large utility room for storage. Outdoors, enjoy the EV-ready garage with an additional gravel parking space. Entertaining is effortless with a garage refrigerator, detached grill, two outdoor Sonos speakers, Unilock brick paver patio with fire pit, and included furniture. Additional highlights include professionally designed closets, room-darkening blinds upstairs, solid wood interior doors, and professional landscaping with perennials and sideline Arborvitae trees for extra privacy. NEW UPDATES include: steam shower in basement (2025), kitchen refrigerator (2025), concrete driveway sealed (2024), water heater with instant hot water (2024), sump pump with backup battery (2024), air ducts cleaned (2024), water softener (2023), Culligan reverse osmosis system (2023), concrete driveway replaced (2022), microwave (approx. 2021), dishwasher (approx. 2020), range with double oven (approx. 2019), two smart thermostats (within last 5 yrs), garbage disposal (within last 5 yrs). Every improvement has been executed by professionals for quality and longevity.
