Charming Expanded 4-Bedroom Cape with Modern Updates and Prime Location
This beautifully maintained expanded Cape-style home offers a spacious and inviting layout perfect for both relaxing and entertaining. Step inside to a bright and airy living room, featuring hardwood floors and plenty of space for family gatherings. The dining area is ideal for both casual meals and formal dinners, and flows seamlessly into the renovated kitchen.
The kitchen is a highlight, featuring stainless steel appliances, sleek granite countertops, modern cabinetry, and recessed lighting. A door off the kitchen leads to the large backyard — a fantastic space for outdoor entertainment and summer BBQs.
The first floor includes two generous bedrooms with ample closet space, and a stylishly updated full bathroom. Upstairs, you'll find two more large bedrooms, both with great closet storage, along with another fully renovated bathroom.
The full basement offers endless potential — use it as additional living space, a home gym, or storage, with the convenience of an on-site washer/dryer and utilities.
The exterior is just as appealing, with well-maintained landscaping, a charming attached 1-car garage, and a paver and cement driveway that adds to the home’s curb appeal. In addition, the house is equipped with a generator.
Perfectly situated close to transportation, schools, and shopping, this home offers both comfort and convenience. With its combination of classic Cape Cod charm and modern updates, this home is move-in ready and waiting for you to make it your own.
