About This Home

As of March 2018

Gorgeous hardwood floors greet you when you walk into this charming 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath cape cod with basement. Notice the cabinet in the living room. You don't find lovely woodwork like this any more. Also on the main level is the kitchen with solid cabinetry and glass slider leading to the enclosed porch. Handy half bath off the kitchen, too. Have a formal dining set? Great! The formal dining room is waiting for you. Also on the main level is the third bedroom which is an addition and its own crawl space underneath. Upstairs are two bedrooms and the full bath. Did you see the pictures of the bar in the basement? It was custom made from a library book return. Very cool! Detached 2.5 car garage and deep lot. New roof with a complete tear off done Sept. 2017. Ready to go! Come in, make some finishing touches, and call it home.
