Welcome to this charming 4 BR Cape Cod minutes from Costco, malls, restaurants, and CD and Bishop McDevitt schools. Nestled along a quaint, respectable street off Locust Lane, you can own a private little piece of earth without being far from the conveniences nearby. This modest home has quite a few stories to tell of a cute young couple who raised children and grandchildren within its walls for 50 years! Over the decades, the owner and his wife added a composite & vinyl front porch (May 2014), a back concrete patio w/motion sensor lights & roof (June 2002), replaced the roof and siding on the shed (2015), and other little treats. Escape to the private backyard with mature trees, bird bath, and garden. Invite the neighbors over to pick from the apple tree, blueberry bushes, and 2 very fruitful asian pear trees. The deer and birds may join!. You'll be pleased with how well the home has been cared for. The owner has had a cleaner every week for decades, replaced the HVAC unit (natural gas heat & air conditioning) 3 years ago, repainted many parts of the home, routinely had the furnace serviced and chimney cleaned. The finished walkout basement also has plenty of storage area as well as a sitting/TV room and small foyer where the owner has entertained his grandchildren for years (you will notice the Sesame Street stickers ;)). Save on utilities with gas heat, gas stove, and gas water heater. All 4 bedrooms have original hardwood flooring. The owner and his wife added a 2nd floor bathroom and had had plans to install a stall shower, which is still possible for the new owner. The seller will miss competing with his neighbor to see who can snowblow the other's driveway first, coming home to all the neighborhood kids crammed in his living room with his wife fawning over them with treats, hosting family get-togethers in the backyard, and watching the birds visit the bird bath nightly. He hopes the new owners will be able to create as many beautiful memories as he has with his family here. All appliances stay, including a 3 year old washer and 7 year old dryer. Truly a home worthy of more great souls!
