Venture past the white fence and enter this charming cape into the living room with a wood burning fireplace. Continue on the hardwood floors throughout into the eat in kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Head past the full bath into two bedrooms displaying their flexibility as an office and an additional sitting area currently. In 2009 a full dormer was added inviting you upstairs. There you will find the two additional larger bedrooms each with a skylight and the ¾ bath. Like the first floor updated ceiling fans bring additional light and air to the space. Descend to the basement where nearly 300 sq. feet of finished space presents many options. Don't miss the washer and dryer (new in 2013), forced hot air furnace (new in 2011), and water heater (new in 2015) also on this level. Walk out to the fenced back yard where you will find three raised vegetable garden beds along with a patio grilling area. Conveniently located minutes from the train, 128, downtown and the beach.
