About This Home

As of November 2014

A HOME WITH A VIEW! Love where you live in this beautiful cape re-imagined & rebuilt from the ground up! This house was brought down to the foundation & one exterior wall and than rebuilt in 2006. Sitting on a completely private lot that borders the spectacular 3400 acre Green Lane Park with water views of Green Lane Reservoir! The water is visible, even in summer, and is absolutely spectacular once the trees drop their leaves. The home is positioned high enough that flood insurance isn't required or needed. Inside every detail has been well thought out & implemented. White oak hardwood floors greet you as you enter the large living room at main level. Eat-in kitchen has lovely hickory cabinets, tile floors & opens to large deck. The main level also has a bedroom (currently used as office), large full tile bath, & laundry/utility room. Upstairs there are two large bedrooms & tile bath. Downstairs, the lower level offers great flexibility. Currently used as an in-law suite w/sleeping area, sitting room, large kitchenette, & full bath. There are sliders opening to an outside patio area. This lower level could also be used as a family room or would make an awesome area for a home based business. Living Room, Kitchen, Hallway, all 3 bathrooms & laundry room all have radiant heat. You must see this home to believe it. Take a minute, walk down to the right side of property and go out to the water. You will be amazed. Bordering park land on two sides of the property, with a stunning water view, this is your once in a lifetime opportunity to own a property like this!
