This move-in-ready Cape-style home is gorgeous! As you walk in, you'll find the open-concept, updated eat-in kitchen and dining area to the right. This space is large and features a stunning kitchen with white cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a large granite peninsula with seating. The dining area offers plenty of room for a table and chairs, and beautiful hardwood floors flow throughout the entire home. Off the kitchen, a great breezeway provides additional space. To the left of the front door is the large living room, offering ample space for furniture placement and relaxation. There's also an updated half bath on the main floor. The second floor features two well-sized bedrooms with excellent closet space, plus a full bath. The basement is large and fully waterproofed, with a transferable warranty, perfect for adding square footage in the future. The exterior of the home is lovely, there is a newly fenced-in yard, and a paver patio. There's also a one-car garage with an enclosed side room for additional storage. Other great features include new central air, newer windows and roof, and plenty of insulation. This home is a must-see!
