About This Home

As of September 2025

Welcome to 11 Birch Lane—a sunny, inviting 3-bed, 2-bath ranch with hardwood floors and a spacious, open layout. The main level offers a seamless connection between the kitchen, dining, and living areas, all filled with natural light, plus three bedrooms, including a primary suite with a full ensuite bath. The finished lower level adds versatile space for play, work, or workouts, along with abundant storage. Outside, enjoy a large lot and sunny deck—ideal for morning coffee, evening unwinding, or summer gatherings. This property also boasts some major recent updates - including brand new countertops, 3-year old 30-year roof, and 7-year old septic. The neighborhood is a rare find: friendly, walkable, and close to hiking and biking trails, Marini Farm, and just minutes from the sand with a $20 Crane Beach pass. With quick highway access and a welcoming coastal community, this home blends comfort, convenience, and charm.
