About This Home
Discover the timeless character of this classic Cape Cod Style home nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac in Westwood. From the beautiful pegged hardwood floors to arched doorways and original bathroom tile the solid craftsmanship is maintained; all while blending with modern updates like newer wood kitchen cabinets and stainless steel appliances. The upstairs is larger and has more natural light than a typical Cape Cod due to the bump out in the back and window dormers in the front. In the cooler seasons cozy up to the wood burning fireplace and when it's warmer the enclosed back porch provides a relaxing oasis with a view of trees. The basement has plenty of storage space along with a flex room that could be used for an exercise room, media room, or even an extra bedroom. Glass block windows provide security and enhanced privacy. While the location is tucked away it's still convenient to restaurants, shopping, and more. Multiple Down Payment Assistance Programs Available!
