About This Home
As of October 2025Welcome to Dill Cottage! This sun-filled, expanded Cape Cod home is loaded with custom architectural details, including vaulted ceilings, arched doorways, elegant moldings, and hardwood floors throughout. Ideally located in the sought-after University area, close to town and train, this home is an entertainer's dream. The stunning eat-in kitchen with a cozy sitting area features custom cabinetry, stone countertops, an island, and a dining nook with built-in bench. Just off the kitchen, the dining room opens to the back patio and yard. The front-to-back living room with a wood-burning fireplace is the perfect spot to curl up with a book or host friends and family. You'll also love the private family room, highlighted by charming arched doorways and vaulted ceilings - a wonderful place to unwind or watch TV. A beautifully updated powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, you'll find a generously sized primary suite with vaulted ceilings, double closets, and a full bath. Two additional spacious bedrooms and another full bath complete the second floor. The lower level is a fantastic surprise, featuring new carpeting and endless options for a recreation room, office, gym, and more. The laundry area and access to the attached garage are also located here. The charm continues outdoors with an expansive patio featuring a fire pit, surrounded by mature landscaping with irrigation. The fenced-in yard, complete with a basketball court, offers plenty of space for outdoor play!
