Beautifully well-taken care of Cape - in the heart of Wellesley Farms, a short distance to the train station and directly by Yotz and Indian Springs Parks - is now ready for its next owners. This four bedroom home plus a large guest room/home office has wonderful flow, with hardwood floors throughout, a fire-placed living room, and an inviting dining room and kitchen that open up to a private, scenic wooded backyard. The light-filled kitchen was updated in 2018 with a Wolf stove, Miele dishwasher, Samsung fridge, deep sink and new faucet. Rounding out the first floor is a full bath and a screened in-porch, perfect for a morning coffee. Head upstairs to three generous sized bedrooms, a remodeled full bath, and ample walk-in storage. The huge basement has immense potential - already partially finished - with a dedicated laundry area/sink, a 2nd fireplace, 1/2 bath, and a state-of-the-art 2017 Veissman boiler, a Unico high velocity A/C system, and a Bosch heat pump.
