Additional updates over the past 1-7 years include boiler, kitchen, central A/C, and front windows. Winter is easier with a heated garage and smart garage doors. Located just minutes from Georgetown shops, restaurants, and Metro North, with easy access to Stamford and NYC. Truly special-must see to appreciate!
