This delightful cape is charming in every way. From the moment you enter the brick floored gathering room with its beamed ceilings and lovely brick fireplace and there's a set of sliders from this room that lead to the backyard deck overlooking the fenced in yard. The open kitchen is cheerful and bright with plenty of counter space and open to the family room with another brick fireplace flanked by builtins on both sides; from here there is a french door that leads you off to another very large back deck. To the front of the house there is a lovely large dining room, just perfect for entertaining. Plus another cozy room currently used as a private sitting room, but would also be perfect for a number of uses, including a first floor bedroom. Just off this area there is a full bath/laundry room with tile flooring and a pedestal sink. Fresh paint and attractive wide pine flooring in all the rooms. The second story has 3 good sized bedrooms; more pretty pine floors, lots of closets. There is another full bath for the secondary bedrooms. The master bedroom also has its own full bath, plus two double closets - great space! The lower level offers even more space to finish as you wish and with a walkout entrance. New Heating system and hot water. The location is perfect - less than 2 miles to the historic Village of Hopkinton and very quick access to I-89 and Rt 202/9. Great schools - close to skiing, golfing and swimming. What more could you want. .. .
