Listing description

Located on a quiet street in an inviting and established neighborhood, this home has so much to offer! Bring your creative eye and flair for design to bring this charming Cape Cod home back to its glory. The classic brick design offers curb appeal with lovely mature landscaping. On approaching the home, you will be greeted by a covered porch where you can spend the warm, summer evenings sipping a refreshing drink and chatting with the neighbors that pass by. Upon entering the home, a spacious Living Room with hardwood floors assures comfortable nights watching your favorite movie with that special someone while enjoying a bowl of popcorn. The modern Kitchen is a great space to explore your culinary aspirations with a one year old gas cook-top that is centrally located on a convenient island. A newer stainless steel wall oven, dishwasher, refrigerator and ample cabinet and counter space in a practical and easy to use layout will bring the budding chef joy. One of the original bedrooms was converted into a formal Dining Room where built-in storage space can be found. The Primary Bedroom with built-in storage allows for one floor living if that is your desire. The full ceramic tile bath fills out the first floor. Upstairs, two more bedrooms exist with even more additional built-in storage. The roomy lower level features a Recreation Room with a decorative fireplace and bar. Add to that yet another finished room that could be a home office, playroom, hobby room, or whatever meets your needs. There is still more storage space in the remaining unfinished area of the basement. And for the handyman or car enthusiast in the family, an oversized two car, cement block garage lay to the rear of the home! There is still plenty of yard space available for get togethers with family and friends, and a covered patio provides shade and protection from the elements. Other features include central air conditioning, economically friendly gas heat, quick possession, and fast and easy access to major highways. More pictures and floor plans to come!
