About This Home

As of September 2024

Welcome to this beautifully crafted, custom-built Cape Cod home, offering an estimated 2,300
(above grade) sqft of thoughtfully designed living space.
Nestled on a private, wooded, picturesque 1.43-acre lot teeming with wildlife, this 4-bedroom/2-
bath residence showcases quality materials with modern efficiencies and timeless charm. Step
inside to find an inviting living room with a striking real stone fireplace and soaring cathedral
ceilings that open up to the second floor. This is the heart of the home and creates a spacious
and airy ambiance.
The main floor also boasts a spacious master suite with direct access to a rear deck, ideal for

and a second full bathroom, providing ample space for family or guests. The dry, full basement
is ready for your customization, equipped with Bilco doors, offering endless potential for
additional living space, a workshop, or storage.
This home is as practical as it is beautiful, with a passive solar design with large glass on the
south west side and a solar water heating option that significantly reduces fuel costs, a high
efficiency multi-zoned hot water heating system and central air along with a roof topped with 40-
year dimensional shingles, ensuring long-lasting protection and peace of mind.
The property’s expansive deck and large yard offer plenty of space for outdoor activities,
entertaining, and enjoying the surrounding natural beauty. It's a nature lover's paradise, full of
wildlife and serene landscapes. The yard also has a large 12x 20 shed with full size garage type
door and man door off its own side deck. This is your opportunity to own a custom-built home,
