Description
Perched on a wooded one-acre parcel, this thoughtfully updated Cape Cod combines timeless character with comprehensive modern improvements. Meandering walking paths, a firepit, and raised garden beds enrich the private grounds, while a spacious four-car garage and a practical storage shed accommodate every pursuit. Nearly every system has been renewed over the past decade, including the roof, hot water boiler, central air, copper plumbing, updated electrical service, replacement windows, and a whole-house water filter and softener. Refinished hardwood floors lend warmth throughout, and the fully remodeled kitchen showcases new cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Four bedrooms and two and one-half baths provide ample flexibility, complemented by a remodeled primary bath and a newly added upstairs bath. The finished basement offers a family room, guest room, and three-quarter bath with walk-out access to the patio. Arrange your private viewing today.
