This traditional cape cod is situated on a maturely landscaped and shaded lot that can be enjoyed from the front and back porches. The downstairs has beautiful hardwoods throughout, an updated half bath, tasteful crown molding in the formal dining room as well as a spacious eat-in kitchen. The kitchen overlooks the back yard and is open to the family room/den and includes a fireplace with gas logs and custom mantle. The home boasts three bedrooms and two baths upstairs. The master suite is generous and includes a walk-in closet. Off of the kitchen is a laundry/mud room which leads to the two car garage. Additionally there is a huge room over the garage(frog) with plenty of storage. The back yard can be accessed off of the sunroom or from the garage. Here you will find a maturely landscaped yard with a pool and wooden deck all within a privacy fence. The natural wooded buffer on the rear property line makes for the perfect family oriented home. If square footage is important - MEASURE!!
