Imagine waking up, brewing your first cup of coffee and looking out your kitchen window at a peaceful, picturesque scene: your beautiful yard leading to open fields where a local farmer is haying the land. This charming, timeless view can be yours every day. This fully dormered Cape is full of character and curb appeal. Mature perennials, decorative exterior trim, and a covered porch welcome you, along with an oversized two-car garage. Inside, the stunning updated kitchen is the heart of the home. It features a large granite center island perfect for entertaining, two-toned cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, recessed mood lighting, crown molding, and tile flooring. It opens seamlessly to a spacious dining area. Just down the hall is a half bath and a massive front-to-back fireplaced living room filled with natural light. The front entry is surprisingly generous for a home of this size. Upstairs you'll find three spacious bedrooms, a full bath, and excellent closet space - much larger than typical Capes. Recent updates include: brand new septic system (tank & fields), on-demand hot water heater, new furnace, water treatment system, well pump, washer, dryer, Nest thermostat, and more. This home perfectly blends classic Cape Cod charm with modern comforts in a tranquil setting. Don't miss it! HIGHEST AND BEST OFFERS TO BE SUBMITTED BY TUESDAY 6/9 AT 5 PM
