About This Home
As of March 2020Exciting opportunity to buy an affordable FEMA compliant home on one of the beach areas most sought after and quiet side streets. 133 Rhoda Avenue is an easy walk to school and beach and a mile to downtown and train. This roomy 4 Bedroom 2 Bath Cape was expertly lifted by Wolfe Construction in 2016 for full FEMA compliance. Flood insurance premium is $303 per year. Stunning remodel of the home with water views was planned but not completed. (see photo of architect's sketch) Home has great bones, is functional and comfortable, but needs some updating and floor plan revision. Original windows, roof and cedar siding were replaced in 2006. Also in 2006 Kitchen was expanded and remodeled creating a desirable open chef's kitchen with granite center island and vaulted eat-in area with bay window. Large Screened Porch off of Kitchen and Family Room adds an inviting 3-season gathering space. Homes mechanics were replaced in 2013 and new gas fireplace was installed in 2016. Stainless gas range and refrigerator are new as of 2017. Update, expand, or build new on existing foundation on this prime .22 acre lot. Don't miss this one of a kind beach area opportunity!
