Picture starting your mornings in a home where every detail feels intentional, from the warmth of beautifully refinished hardwood floors to a kitchen that looks anything but builder-basic. Spend evenings gathered around the custom fireplace, entertain downstairs at the wet bar, or step onto the new back porch and enjoy a fully fenced yard that gives you just enough outdoor space without the upkeep of an oversized lot. Welcome to 538 S. Ashburton Rd. -- a fully remodeled 5-bedroom, 2-bath Cape Cod offering approximately 1,671 square feet and a level of finish rarely found at this price point. The kitchen sets the tone with crisp white upper cabinetry, white oak shaker lowers, high-end quartz countertops, and a customized look that gives the home warmth and personality. Four bedrooms are above grade, including one currently staged as an office, while the partially finished lower level adds a fifth bedroom/rec space and wet bar for even more flexibility. And this renovation goes well beyond what you see. Major improvements include updated windows, A/C, plumbing and drain lines, water heater, electrical system, driveway, landscaping, porch, privacy fence, and more, along with a newer furnace and roof. Offered at $249,900, this is an opportunity to get five bedrooms, elevated finishes, updated mechanicals, and true move-in-ready living without settling for another white-on-white renovation. Open House Saturday 12-2 PM and Sunday 4-5 PM. The work is done. The personality is already here. All that's left is to move in and make it yours!
