Like a certain fairytale child once almost said,“This house is just right.” Nestled nicely off Compo Road South, this thoughtfully & cheerfully redesigned home gives the feeling that all that was done, was done just right. Light abounds from scores of windows & warms the polished, white oak floors. The kitchen is generous & welcoming. The airy, great room with beams above doesn’t even hint that behind a panel is a gem of a bar. The bedrooms are crisply & smartly done. Radiant heat thru the first floor & the 3.5 baths; indoor/outdoor audio; specimen plantings; double dishwashers, ovens & washers & dryers; & there’s room for a pool or to expand on .87 acres. The beach, town, train and 95 are all nearby, but not too close. In fact, just right.
