About This Home

As of March 2025

WE ARE IN A MULTIPLE OFFER SITUATION. ALL HIGHEST-AND-BEST OFFERS ARE DUE BY 5 PM ON FEBRUARY 15, 2025. Welcome home to an adorable, quaint and cozy, 2-bedroom, 2.5 bathroom, all brick Cape Cod home situated on a purely residential street. The curb appeal is picturesque! Walk into an inviting living room area featuring seamless luxury vinyl flooring and inviting wall colors, and watch as the natural sunlight beams into this beautiful home! The breakfast seating area is perfectly situated between the kitchen and living room, and it comfortably seats four people. The kitchen is also very impressive with its white, shaker style cabinets, a tastefully curated granite countertop and stainless steel appliances. Wash your dishes and gaze outside into your huge yard that sits on a double lot; your yard also features a dog run and a custom built shed! There is a bedroom on the first floor and there is another bedroom on the second floor. The first floor bedroom is spacious with ample closet space; the first floor bedroom can be used for a bedroom, an in-law arrangement or an office! There is a bathroom on every floor, too! Then, head upstairs, and get ready to be further impressed! The second floor opens up to a vaulted ceiling and a long walkway parallel to a sprawling primary closet, and it then extends into a large primary bedroom with its plentiful windows for even more natural sunlight exposure followed by an updated primary bathroom with its pretty tilework and a glowing skylight. This floor feels like a private retreat! There is more: enjoy a spacious basement, which is perfect for relaxing, entertaining, a man cave or an exercise room. This home is perfect: inside and outside. This home is also easy to show. Show and sell. A 10!
