About this home
Charming and solid 1940s Cape with detached 2-car garage. On the outskirts of town with 0.63 acres, this property has a rural vibe, but only 1.2 miles from Main Street. .. enjoy both the quiet and convenience! Large rear deck overlooks the backyard and is a welcome entryway to the sunny breakfast nook and kitchen. All appliances are staying, including the washer/dryer in the basement. Dining room with built-in shelves and pristine hardwood floors. It's been used as a bedroom in the past, so if you need first floor living, it could be easily closed in for privacy.

Large living room with wood-burning brick fireplace, ceiling beams, and more built-in bookshelves. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a half bath, with soft pine floors throughout. Unfinished basement has laundry hookup, utility sink, newer oil tank, boiler, 100 amp electrical panel, water softener, pressure tank & jet pump. House is connected to a private septic system with 1000 gallon tank and drywell. Exterior vinyl siding and windows for low maintenance and there's a paved driveway. One garage bay has an automatic opener, the other is a manual lift door, and there's tons of storage space for your toys, tools and hobbies.

Sweet 2 bedroom, 1 bath Cape on the outskirts of town. Literally a mile from Main Street, but in a rural setting. .. the best of both worlds! Detached 2-car garage and paved driveway. Take the walkway to the rear wood deck with PVC railings, and imagine enjoying your morning coffee and evening dinners in the tranquil surroundings. Entering the back door, you'll see the most beautiful breakfast nook with north-facing windows to soak up the view without direct sunlight. Kitchen has tons of cabinets for storage, counters for workspace, and includes all appliances. The wall to the dining room is opened up for an airy feeling connecting these two spaces. .. BUT it used to be a bedroom, so if you need a third bedroom, this is the place to do it. Living room with wood-burning fireplace, ceiling beams, and cushy carpet on top of the original hardwood floors. Renovated full bathroom with timeless black-and-white tiled floor, wainscoting, and tub/shower on the main level. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a 1/2 bath, with plenty of closet space and natural light. Vinyl replacement windows, vinyl siding, and low maintenance landscaping. Unfinished basement has new boiler and oil tank, new washer & dryer, new jet pump for well, tons of space for storage, hobbies, workshop or home gym. Great backyard for gardening, games, or adding a pool. .. with the adjacent woods, it's a total of 0.63 acres. This property is well-loved and could be your home sweet home!
