Classic New England architecture, a Cape on a hill! 3 bedroom, two bath home with something extra. Move-in condition. The main floor boasts both a formal living room and a family room (possible dining room) with one bedroom and full bath along with an eat-in-kitchen. Upstairs are two generous-sized bedrooms, like, front-to-back sized, and a full bath. Plenty of windows both on the gable ends and the back of the full dormer. The basement offers the possibility of extra potential, being how it is a full, direct walk-out. Oil-fired boiler and mechanicals in one corner and, along the back wall by the laundry hookups, there is roughed-in plumbing in the floor. The lot is nearly an acre, but by virtue of being sited on the aforementioned hill, there is a sense of privacy and set-back-from-the-roadedness found on much larger parcels. All this located minutes from the elementary school, a short ride into Westerly or Wakefield for shopping and an even shorter ride to the ocean!
