Welcome to this spacious, custom-built Cape situated on a desirable cul-de-sac. Offering 8 rooms, 4 bedrooms, and 1.5 baths, this home provides plenty of space and flexibility for today’s living. The main level features a formal living room with a cozy fireplace, a dining room just off the kitchen, an exterior door leading directly to the backyard, a full bathroom, and two bedrooms. Upstairs you’ll find two additional generously sized bedrooms with ample closet space. Hardwood flooring runs throughout the home, adding warmth and character. The lower level is high and open, providing excellent potential for finishing, complete with a half bath, laundry area, and bulkhead access. The backyard is super private and quiet, perfect for outdoor enjoyment, and includes an in-ground pool (in need of some work) offering endless possibilities for summer fun. A one-car garage completes the package. Don’t miss out!
