Traditional and charming New England cape with fabulaous curb appeal. Be ready to move right in! The gray shingle siding, classic black shutters, dormers, and charming brick entry walkway lead to a warm and welcoming interior, designed for easy one-level living. The first floor offers exceptional flexibility, with a primary bedroom suite, an updated kitchen with a dining area, a family room with gas fireplace, living room, a powder room, and a laundry room — everything you need on a single level. Step outside to two distinct outdoor living spaces — an inviting rear deck off the kitchen with two private ground-level patio areas — both overlooking a peaceful backyard perfect for entertaining and relaxation. The attached garage, mature landscaping, and roofline expansion round out a property that is as functional as it is charming.
