As of September 2016Fantastic Cape Cod style home with lots of updates completed throughout 2012-2013. Beginning with the exterior improvements, a new roof with new sheathing was added, all new Pella windows and doors, and a flagstone patio in the back. The interior improvements included a complete kitchen remodel with custom cabinets and a quartz countertop, new maple wood flooring was added on both levels, new sheet rock in kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms, and complete remodels to both bathrooms including new tubs, sinks, and tile flooring. Also replaced in 2013: furnace, A/C, and water heater with high efficiency units. In 2014, the east half of the basement was waterproofed and new floor tile was installed on the east half along with the laundry room. A sump pump was also installed that year. The basement is dry and ready for your finishing touches
