Welcome to 5217 Catalpha Rd in Lauraville, where the updates buyers worry about most have already been taken care of. The roof, HVAC, A/C evaporator, water heater, kitchen appliances, washer and dryer, carpet, and luxury vinyl plank flooring have all been replaced within the last few years, offering real peace of mind from day one. You can feel the difference the moment you walk in. The main level lives easy and open, with a layout that actually works. The kitchen, dining, and living spaces flow together seamlessly, anchored by a sleek electric fireplace that adds both warmth and style. This level also features two bedrooms and a full bath, giving you the option for true main level living. Upstairs is the private primary bedroom suite, something not every Cape Cod can offer. With ceiling heights over 7 feet, this is a space you can actually use comfortably. The ensuite full bath and built in dressers make it both functional and inviting, creating a true retreat. The finished basement adds even more flexibility with a fourth bedroom, full bath, and additional living space that works well for guests, a home office, or whatever you need next. The kitchen is enhanced by a professionally finished pantry that adds both organization and style. Step outside and it keeps getting better with a covered back porch, fully fenced yard, and a private rear parking pad. It is set up for real living, whether that means quiet mornings or weekend gatherings. With four bedrooms across three finished levels, this home offers a rare combination of updates, functionality, and character in one of Lauraville’s most loved neighborhoods. If you have been waiting for something that feels right the second you walk in, this is it. (This home is potentially a short sale with the final sale price being the determining factor. The short sale process, if needed, will be handled by an experienced short sale team.)
