Welcome to this charming and surprisingly spacious Cape, nestled in a sought-after neighborhood known for its peaceful ambiance and convenient location. Set back from the road, the home offers enhanced privacy and curb appeal. The generous backyard, with distant neighbors, provides a serene escape, complemented by a covered brick patio and a sun-drenched deck—ideal for outdoor relaxation. Inside, previous expansions and recent upgrades have modernized the home while preserving its character. Built-in features are plentiful, and three flexible living areas, each with a fireplace, create inviting spaces for any occasion. These include a large front-to-back great room, a cozy media room, and an open family room, all perfect for relaxation or entertaining. The eat-in kitchen, with a wide pass-through, fosters a welcoming, communal atmosphere. Stunning recent updates introduced Viking appliances, a coffee bar, a wine fridge, and elegant marble countertops. Adjacent laundry and powder rooms were also refreshed, bringing brightness and modern convenience. Uncommon for a Cape, is the main-level primary suite with walk-in closet, offering comfort and accessibility. Upstairs, two additional corner bedrooms share the floor with the original primary suite, equally spacious and filled with natural light. A newly renovated hall bath features stylish penny tile, and a bonus room provides flexibility for a playroom, second office, or whatever your needs may be. Even the basement has been transformed, offering a pristine space for recreation or fitness. With on demand hot water, Nest thermostats, and a well-insulated attic, this home offers comfort year-round. Don’t miss the opportunity to make this beautifully updated and well-maintained home yours!
