About this home

1920 Craftsman bungalow. Filled with light all day. Short walk to Braga Park, twenty-minute walk to Easton's Beach, and ten minute drive to Second Beach. Situated on a large corner lot that has been professionally landscaped with New England native plants, from witch hazels to inkberry hollies. Inside, high ceilings and wood floors give this compact home an unexpected feeling of harmony and spaciousness. Three bedrooms line the east side of the house; living room, dining room, and kitchen line the west side. Gas heat and a high-efficiency wood stove keep utility bills low in the winter. Electric throughout the home and the stand-alone garage has been recently updated, and utility wires have been buried. One-level living is ideal for seniors, beach lovers, and gardeners.
