About this home

Quintessential New England! Welcome home to this charming reproduction Cape Cod style home by noted Boston architect Royal Berry Wills. The setting is a beautiful lightly wooded one acre lot. With all the charm of yesteryear, this home also offers many modern conveniences. The first floor master bedroom boasts a huge walk-in closet and en-suite bath. All new stainless steel kitchen appliances and a custom crafted breakfast bar were added in 2017. A new laundry area has been relocated from the basement to the first floor, conveniently located just outside the master bedroom. The second floor has two additional spacious bedrooms with loads of storage. This is a great house for entertaining with a lovely front to back living room, dining room and a three season sun porch. Two masonry wood burning fireplaces add to the charm. Home is being sold AS IS. Inspections will be for buyers knowledge only.
