Set back from the road on nearly an acre in an established Merrimack setting, this standout 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath Garrison Colonial combines a naturally shaded, wooded setting with generous space inside and out. Freshly painted blue wood siding, a new roof with architectural shingles, and a generous driveway with ample parking create inviting curb appeal. The two-car garage underneath provides direct access to the walkout lower level, where workshop, utility, and storage areas add everyday function. Inside, Pergo Defense+ laminate flooring carries through much of the main level. The eat-in kitchen features oak cabinetry, recessed lighting, a breakfast nook, and a window over the sink overlooking the backyard. A freshly painted formal dining room is filled with natural light, while the large front living room offers flexible space for sitting, reading, working from home, or enjoying a favorite hobby. At the back of the home, the great room stands out with vaulted ceilings, an exposed wood beam, ceiling fan, wood-burning fireplace, and slider to the freshly painted red deck. Built-in benches and steps lead down to the sprawling backyard, where mature trees, open lawn, and a fully assembled playset offer plenty of room to roam. A half bath with convenient first-floor laundry completes the main level. Upstairs, brand-new carpet runs throughout. The spacious primary suite features a walk-in closet and private 3/4 bath, while two generous bedrooms, a full bath, and ample storage complete the second floor. Updated mechanicals include a new propane-fired boiler providing multi-zone hot-water heat and on-demand domestic hot water. Superbly maintained, turnkey, and move-in ready, this home is just minutes from Baboosic Lake, shopping, dining, schools, and in close proximity to the Massachusetts border, Route 101, I-293, and Everett Turnpike/Route 3.
