18 Gloria Lane The Home People Have Been Waiting For -- And You Need to Know About It. It's often said that some homes look the part, but this gorgeous colonial gem is the part. Nestled on a peaceful cul-de-sac in Monroe's one of the most sought-after communities, It's the home that feels lived-in and genuine. From the moment you arrive, the full brick front facade commands attention -- timeless curb appeal that signals quality before you ever step inside. And inside, the drama continues: a soaring 2-story center hall foyer sets the tone for a home that is as elegant as it is livable. With 5 spacious bedrooms, 4 full baths, and a 1st floor powder room, plus a dedicated first-floor office that makes working from home feel like a privilege rather than a compromise. The expansive kitchen flows effortle into a sun-drenched breakfast area leads to spacious living room -- a space designed as much for quiet mornings as it is for memorable gatherings. This is designed for the way families actually live today. Entertain effortlessly, then step outside to your beautifully appointed paver patio overlooking a tranquil, open backyard view -- the kind of setting that makes every evening feel like a retreat. Commute to New York without compromising the life style you've built here -- the bus stop is minutes away, but this backyard will make you forget the city exists. The fully finished basement is a showstopper in its own right, offering a full bath, a polished private office, and a finished workshop -- a rare trifecta of function, flexibility, and finish that buyers simply do not expect to find. And here is what truly shows the owners have been stewards, not just residents. In addition to meticulous maintenance throughout, the attic features a radiant barrier insulation system -- a premium energy efficiency upgrade. This is the kind of thoughtful investment that discerning buyers notice and appreciate. Cul-de-sac homes in Monroe this well-appointed don't come twice -- and the people who hesitated last time know that all too well. This is the moment you've been waiting for -- don't let it pass.
