About This Home

As of April 2024

Welcome to your spacious and charming quality-built stone Cape Cod home, offering a blend of character and modern convenience in a prime location! The back alley with off street parking and 1 car garage offers access to the exquisitely landscaped fenced-in yard, offering a private oasis for your outdoor enjoyment- whether you're gardening, entertaining, or simply relaxing in the sunshine.

Step into the inviting interior of this spacious 4-bedroom home, where comfort and versatility harmonize seamlessly. The main level welcomes you with a formal dining and living room, perfect for elegant gatherings and creating cherished memories. The eat-in kitchen boasts so much charm and view into the step-in sunroom, complete with a view of the gorgeous backyard oasis for your enjoyment! On the main level you'll also find a full bath and two well-appointed bedrooms. Upstairs you'll be happily surprised by the additional space- another full bathroom and two more bedrooms plus a giant bonus room await you! This bonus room is packed with possibilities and would make a great office, additional bedroom, play room, or craft space! Descend to the finished basement, boasting additional space with endless uses as well as a half bathroom. In part of the basement, you'll also find a section formerly configured as an in-home business- a one-chair salon, complete with its own entrance into the backyard!

This home is not only ideal for residential living but also presents an incredible opportunity for a home-based business or investment venture with its mixed-use zoning and previous salon setup. Imagine the possibilities for a studio, office, or boutique in this convenient location!

Outside, the property features a one-car garage and four additional off-street parking spaces, ensuring plenty of room for vehicles and storage.

Other notable features include a new efficient gas furnace, ensuring comfort and cost savings throughout the seasons. This home is also built with a quality you won't find today- these walls are extremely thick, offering excellent insulation as well as blocking most of the outside noise! Plus, the family that owned it has lovingly cared for it for decades, something you cannot put a price on. Not to mention, with its proximity to shopping, restaurants, highways, and other amenities, everything you need is just moments away.

Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to own a piece of history with modern comforts and endless potential. Schedule your showing today and discover all that this captivating property has to offer!
