Welcome home to this inviting four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath renovated Cape Cod situated on a private 0.94-acre lot in North Star. This residence offers an exceptional array of features. The recently renovated kitchen includes white cabinetry, quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and a ceramic tile floor. Sliding doors in the kitchen provide a tranquil view of the expansive backyard. The dining room is enhanced with board and batten detailing, while the living room presents a warm and welcoming atmosphere with a wood-burning fireplace. Original refinished hardwood floors extend throughout most of the home. Completing the main floor are a generously sized bedroom, a half bath, and a laundry room. The laundry room includes a relatively new Maytag commercial-size washer and gas dryer. The upper level includes two bedrooms and a hall bath. The second upstairs bedroom features a spacious walk-in closet that spans the length of the room, ideal for clothing, storage, or additional play space. The hall bath is elegantly finished with marble countertops and marble flooring. The newly remodeled lower level features a family room with vinyl plank flooring, a wood-burning fireplace, and sliding doors that open to the backyard. The lower-level bedroom includes LVP flooring, a walk-in closet, and a bay window. The fully remodeled bath provides a walk-in shower, marble vanity, and tile floors. There is also a partially unfinished area on the lower level suitable for storage. The backyard is large, level, and bordered by woods. It includes a playset less than five years old and a spacious deck with new railings. The home features a breezeway connecting to the two-car garage. All windows have been replaced except those in the laundry area and breezeway. An exterior French drain and underground downspout drainage system were added in 2022. A new septic system was installed by a professional contractor in 2025. Showings begin Friday. Be sure to include this exceptional property on your tour.
