Nature's Paradise - Beauty abounds in this wonderful 2 1/3 acre property which has been developed over the last several decades by its owner, a professional landscaper. Loads of perennials, stone walls, exposed rock, flowering shrubs and trees make this a special place. Sit atop it highest point and watch beautiful sunsets. Or sit on your 30 x 12 deck with its private setting. Final plantings are being added to an exposed rock formation alongside the deck. The main level offers a living room with a wood burning stove, dining room, kitchen and full bath, plus a huge 22x21 Great Room which was added to this comfortable Cape when the home was expanded. Upstairs there is a 22x21 Master Bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and many closets, and a study or work out room attached). There are 2 other bedrooms and a full bath on this level as well. The lower level has laundry/utility room, a potential man-cave, a work room and an oversized 2 car garage. Oil hot-water baseboard heat and the home is serviced by well and septic.
