Welcome to this expanded cape full of timeless charm, thoughtful updates, and incredible craftsmanship—lovingly maintained by generations of master carpenters and electricians. Located in the heart of Massapequa, in highly sought-after Plainedge School District, this home is just a short walk to Schwarting Elementary School and Patriots Park! Making it an ideal location for families.
Featuring 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, the interior offers original oak floors throughout, an open yet semi-private layout, with abundant natural light entering from two custom bay windows. The spacious living room flows effortlessly into the formal dining room, then ending in the updated eat-in-kitchen equipped with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a propane gas range, and tile flooring with electric radiant heat—thermostatically controlled for comfort. Additional heating is provided via hydronic baseboard in a second zone.
The first floor includes two well-sized bedrooms, a full handicap-accessible bathroom, and thoughtful touches like ceiling fans, updated lighting, and integrated smoke/carbon detectors. Upstairs, the dormer creates expanded living space with two additional bedrooms, illuminated cedar closets, built-in shelving, and a second full bathroom with original tile, updated fixtures, and vintage charm.
A finished basement offers additional versatility, featuring an ornamental fireplace and a separate entrance. A dedicated workshop with custom-built workbench, updated electric panel (generator-ready), and five-zone heating system showcase the home’s attention to detail. The attached heated garage is oversized and includes attic access for even more storage.
Lastly, step outside to your private backyard oasis, complete with a handcrafted brick patio, lush landscaping, a rare white fig tree, and a koi pond—a peaceful retreat with solar lighting throughout. The roof is 4 years old, and the home features original cedar siding with beaver board underlayment, a 5-zone heating system, and a generator-ready electric panel.
This home is filled with meaningful details, from built-in storage and cedar closets to handcrafted features and updated systems. A truly special property that blends classic charm with modern livability. Don't miss this unique opportunity to own a home filled with character, updates, and pride of ownership in a prime location near top schools, shopping, and transportation!
