This three dormer Cape Cod has one of the best floor plans I've ever seen for a Cape. You have a full front to back Living room that will accommodate a lot of friends. The kitchen is large enough to hold a movable island. Wow the master is 22' x 13' and has a walk in closet! Previous owners replaced the windows and updated the kitchen with granite counters. The current owner added a new 14 seer heat pump that has gas back up for those cold nights! They replaced the kitchen appliances, washer and dryer in 2021. Plus they have installed a security camera system with local DVR. In early 2021 the owners enclosed the rear porch creating an inviting sunroom and an additional space to focus. You will have tons of storage in the pull down attic, full basement and garage. The sad owners are leaving one of the most walkable neighborhoods in the city. You will be close to a great playground, Stella’s, Vail Brewery, Blanchard coffee, Little Nickel Restaurant, O’Toole’s pub, the Kitchenette and much more!!! It is a great lifestyle…
