1985 built DORMERED Cape in a perfect Location, walking distance to schools (Duffy elementary ) and only a mile to the Center . Yes, you read it right , built in 1985 with the wonderful charm of a cape. Right in the midst of houses that are double the price . Everything you want in your next home; 2 full baths, garage actually attached to the house , open flow, spacious dining room, central air and wood floors throughout . The Eat- in kitchen combines with the Family Room perfect for gatherings with sliders to an expanded deck that flows into the fenced in private spacious back yard. You can easily finish off a room in the basement that is partially finished already for extra space. And we know you love gas for cooking and heat. The windows were replaced in 2013, the roof is newer too (2011) . The master is good sized and on the first floor, with a full bath (shower) that also opens to the hallway. ASSESSMENT CHANGE - as of 10/1/19 the new assessment will be $236,880 for taxes July 1, 2020.(New Value of $338,400 ) We challenged the current value of 393,200 (2016), knowing the taxes were higher than most capes (or colonials ) of this size . A lot of the value is due to the land and the area. Also, there will be a town re-evualtion in Oct. 2021 . That re-valuation will be impacted by this lower sale.

Seller will give a credit for carpet on the stairs for the new buyer to do new carpet or wood. This carpet was better for her dog. We got a quote of $950-1350 for either carpet or pergo but we were waiting to see what the new owner wanted .
