Not your average cape! This 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath oversized cape in a quiet, yet convenient, neighborhood has tons of curb appeal. Cross the delightful rocking chair front porch to enter the heart of the home - - a large, light filled open plan kitchen, family room, computer center, and dining area. Abundant counter and storage space, with windows that provide beautiful views of the outdoors, make it a joy to work or entertain in. The formal living room, with wood burning fireplace, can be easily converted to a home office and the formal dining room a 2nd downstairs bedroom. A full bath and laundry area complete the “first floor living”. Off the first floor living area, a 19x12 screened porch, overlooking the wooded backyard, is perfect for alfresco dining or to provide a safe outdoor playroom for the kids. The second floor, with partial dormer features 2 bedrooms and a large ½ bath. The massive addition created a walk out basement with ample space for a workshop, storage, a game room, a workspace, or all of the above. There are hardwood floors under most of the carpets, a newer roof, and an expanded driveway for an extra car, RV, or boat parking. A $5,000 credit towards updates is being offered to make this house your own.
