Welcome to 8 Dana Road, a charming home in a serene, tree-lined neighborhood that has been lovingly cared for by the original owners for 60 years. The main level greets you with a sprawling living room, featuring a gorgeous picture window and wood-burning fireplace, that creates a seamless flow to the rest of the floor. Gleaming hardwood floors await underneath all of the carpeting, making for a simple solution to those seeking a more modern look. The spacious, eat-in kitchen is highlighted by granite counters and an abundance of cabinet space, ready to be used as is or converted into your dream custom kitchen. Enjoy cooking family dinners or hosting gatherings in an idyllic setting, with direct access to the back deck, formal dining room and attached screened-in porch, creating an incredible balance of indoor and outdoor spaces. Down the hall, you will find a full bathroom and three large bedrooms with fantastic closet space, including the primary suite with its own full bathroom. On the lower level, there is a lovely family room with gas fireplace and built-in shelves, a fourth bedroom (or the perfect home office), laundry room, a half bathroom and access to the oversized two-car garage. Outside, revel in the tranquil backyard, or head to the neighborhood trailhead into Murray York Conservation Area to the Narrow Gauge Rail Trail, Fawn Lake and more. This location makes for a convenient lifestyle blend for those seeking outdoor activities and easy access to local stores, restaurants and schools. Updates include a new roof in approximately 2016, hot water tank in 2020, boiler in 2014 and upstairs windows in 2013.
