Exceptional home on a beautifully landscaped lot in a sought-after location on a dead-end street near town. The current owners’ vision includes extraordinary attention to detail and quality finishing work. You’ll love the extra-high ceilings on the bright, open main floor with custom cabinets in the updated kitchen with easy access to the family room. A wood-burning stove gives off cozy vibes in the large living room. A picturesque staircase leads to the 2nd floor with cathedral ceilings. The 1st floor half bath has laundry facilities, and the spacious main bath upstairs has a jacuzzi tub and separate shower. Do you need closet space? Every bedroom has a walk-in closet, and the main bedroom has 2! There’s more to love like the partially finished basement and mudroom for winter boots, jackets or sand from Crane Beach. The custom shed with its own porch is a bonus. Enjoy easy access to the train, highways and downtown from a one-of-a-kind property filled with unique nooks and crannies.
