About this home
You've found it! The perfect blend of charm and easy maintenance, with a spacious backyard. This two bedroom cape-style home has been lovingly maintained for years and is ready for its new owner. Step inside and find a sun-filled living room and independent dining room, perfect for entertaining. Just off the kitchen, enjoy access to a partially finished basement, large enough for all your storage needs and a recreation/media room. It's easy living with a first floor main bedroom and bathroom, plus a bonus office or sunroom fit for the occasional guest or for daily use. Your upstairs has a second large bedroom and storage along the length of the home. Outside, enjoy a one car garage, with parking for three more down the driveway, a large concrete covered patio and shade under the trees, for those peaceful, lazy days at home. This may just be the one you've been waiting for. Don't miss it.
