This classic Cape offers the best of old and new! Every detail has been thoughtfully upgraded making this neighborhood gem move-in ready. Upgraded electrical, new plumbing, 1 year old furnace and HVAC system that was recently inspected, fresh paint, a newly opened up downstairs floor plan and the new, expansive primary suite on the second floor hint at the fantastic improvements. Lovely original millwork can be found throughout, hardwood floors are newly refinished, new fixtures in every room and a comfortable floor plan make this home extremely livable and perfect for entertaining. The stunning new kitchen offers quartz countertops, an island, soft close cabinetry extending to the ceiling, new stainless steel Samsung appliances including a gas range, abundant storage space and a farmhouse sink. The living and dining rooms flow beautifully one to another and into the open concept kitchen. The versatile sun room offers privacy just off the living room making it perfect for an office, gym or cozy den. Two spacious bedrooms on the first floor with ample closet space offer new light fixtures; a newly renovated full bath with charming arch and new tile completes the first floor. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite (with a brand new heat pump system for this floor only) features two generous closets, abundant light and beautiful new hardwood floors. The en suite primary bathroom is spacious with a tiled walk-in shower with custom glass door and crisp quartz topped vanity making this luxurious bathroom feel like a private, spa retreat. The full basement offers laundry hookups, the new hot water heater and great storage. Outside is an inviting slate patio and lovely back yard with parking in the rear. The slate roof has been well maintained.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
