Nestled in the picturesque town of Columbia, 9 Gavin Drive is a remarkable custom colonial set on nearly four secluded acres at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, offering a true sense of privacy and serenity. Inside, an expansive open-concept design unfolds with effortless elegance. The dramatic family room is anchored by soaring double-height ceilings, a magnificent fieldstone fireplace, and a striking wall of floor-to-ceiling windows that bathe the space in natural light. The updated kitchen is appointed with stainless steel appliances, a five-burner gas cooktop, water filtration system, and an adjoining butler's pantry designed for both convenience and sophisticated entertaining. The main level also features a fantastic sunroom with sliding doors leading to a newly framed deck, an elegant formal dining room, a full bath and separate powder room, as well as two additional flexible spaces perfectly suited for a media room, formal living room, office or playroom.
