This delightful ranch delivers big on charm with its sun-filled rooms and modern 'cottage' style. Tastefully renovated with a new kitchen and the addition of a sun-room and a three season porch, you will love the feel of this comfortable home. The exterior was re-shingled and a new roof put on in 2010, and professional landscaping with lovely gardens and stone driveway and walkway in 2011. All new windows added in 2008. The back yard may be viewed from the large picture window in the sun-room, or your three season porch, providing a natural, private and easy to maintain yard that abuts a wooded area. Centrally located less than a mile to Front Beach as well as shops and galleries in the village. Walk two blocks to a lovely off-leash park with trails that will take you all the way to popular Dogtown. Don't miss out: this home provides low-maintenance, carefree living in the village by the sea.
