Welcome to 17 Tecumseh - The house that beat all the others back to the market! Take advantage before all the other buyers come out of hibernation with this RECENTLY finished classic brick cape. Located on oversized corner lot + cul-de-sac with a custom built barn/garage ($50k+) that adds tremendous value with 10’ garage doors + the ability to park any size truck + have a loft office or workspace above. This cape has had all the big ($$$) ticket items completed with attention to energy efficient upgrades. This includes a high-efficiency wall hung gas boiler + on-demand tankless water heater. In addition, new energy star thermopane windows have been installed + a new 30-year architectural roof. One of the biggest surprises is the amount of interior space. The house is much larger than what appears from street + does not feel like a typical cape. There are flexible living spaces over three floors + a possible first-floor master with full bath. All four bedrooms are generous size. The kitchen has been updated with stainless-steel appliances, granite counters and the layout has been optimized with a bank of pantry cabinets, desk space, and an island to eat and prep at. The house is walking distance to places of worship; one mile from Bishop Corner and in one of the best school districts in the state. Low maintenance brick exterior. The house has recently gone through a major transformation. It’s a great value buy for all the space and significant main component updates.
