Welcome to 85 McVeagh Road, where privacy, flexibility and shoreline living come together. Originally custom-built for the builder's own family, this quality-built home features hardwood floors throughout and a layout with architectural details that set it apart from the typical Colonial. Step inside to a spacious, open foyer with plenty of room to welcome guests. To the right, the living room is centered around a wood-burning fireplace and opens to the eat-in area, where architectural details and French doors bring in plenty of natural light and lead to the patio and backyard. The kitchen offers granite countertops, peninsula seating, abundant cabinetry and a large pantry closet, with newer appliances including a brand-new dishwasher and newer range and microwave. To the left of the foyer is the formal dining room. Continue down the hall past a linen closet to the half bath and convenient main-level laundry, and finally to the oversized library/den. This room was designed with the possibility of becoming a future main-level primary suite and gives the home multigenerational potential. It works just as well as a private guest space, home office, second living room or library. Upstairs, large windows bring in an abundance of natural light. The private primary suite features a walk-in closet and granite-topped bath. Down the hall, three additional bedrooms offer generous closets, while a second full bath and another large linen closet complete the
