About This Home

As of May 2020

In a nutshell, WOW!! Move-in ready home with renovated bathrooms and kitchen amongst other upgrades, aggressively priced to sell and one of the true deals in this marketplace. Sited on a half acre on a popular cul-de-sac within walking distance of Holmes elementary school, this expanded cape offers 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, with plenty of formal and informal living space and gleaming hardwood floors throughout. The backyard boasts a large terrace, a sports court, and lots of lawn space – a property that is equally enjoyable inside and out. Truly an opportunity not to be missed.
