5 years ago it was love at first sight when they walked in to 56 Rockingham, after all, "it's the house you drew when you were little". This old fashioned gem had just undergone an extensive restoration including a new roof, heating system, updated plumbing/electrical, kitchen & bathroom. At the heart of the home you'll find an open concept floor plan which lends to versatile & comfortable living. A breakfast bar off of the upscale kitchen delineates the design to offer a generously sized living room w/dining space. Off of the living room you'll find a very cozy main level bedroom/office + tiled full bathroom! A hardworking entrance foyer/mud-space frames the staircase to the upper level which features 2 spacious bedrooms w/great closets. Garage parking + a fenced-in back yard & a rocking chair front porch retreat make this Maplewood location ideal! Just a short stroll parks/playgrounds + the conveniences of Lebanon Street. Come create your own memories, you just may fall in love too!
