Located in desirable Northfield where you get more space to spread out, this timeless Colonial home is on 1.1 acres of land with a serene backyard nestled beneath a canopy of towering oak trees. A long drive leads to an expansive parking court allowing guests to park with ease. Upon entering, you'll notice the dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows filling the home with natural light, and the charming moldings and millwork which create a comfortable atmosphere.
