Charming antique Cape Cod on a corner parcel! There aren't many homes in the area as adorable as this one. As you approach from nearby Ridge Road, you'll appreciate the rising roof line and crisp front yard curb appeal. There is a large front patio for sipping coffee in the morning, and upon entering, you're greeted with hardwood flooring, a wood burning fireplace, and the home's original bookshelves and built-ins. Off of the living room you'll have the option of entering either the spacious kitchen with an antique hearth surrounding your second fireplace, or the dining room which is home to your third fireplace. The dining room impresses with a continuance of hardwood flooring, and space enough for six, quite easily. The back hallway continues onward to the primary bath, which overlooks the deck and backyard. Opposite the bath, is a den with laundry hookups and the washer and dryer, which are included in the sale. From the den, you can directly access the deck to tend to the grill, while your loved ones gather in the yard or around the fire pit in the evenings. Upstairs, you'll find the master bedroom, with attractive architectural beams running along the ceiling. Acting as a buffer between bedrooms, is the second full bath, followed by the secondary bedroom. Off the secondary bedroom, is a flex-space, which can be easily made into a third bedroom, as it loops back to the stairway. Before exiting from the kitchen, be sure to check out the cozy workshop off of the mudroom, complete with a bench for tools and storage space to support your green thumb and outdoor activities. Nestled directly between Whitneyville and Spring Glen, with easy access to interstates 91, 15, Bassett Park, Hamden Dog Park, and the booming downtown amenities of Centerville.
