Description

Back On The Market! Buyer couldn't perform. Come see this fully renovated Mother-Daughter cape with 6 bedrooms, 2 full and one half bathrooms that sits on 1.27 acres. The freshly painted exterior in a modern gray will make a beautiful statement, along with the new landscaped front yard. As you enter, you'll be greeted by a newly painted house, new easy-maintenance luxury vinyl planks throughout and new light fixtures to match. On the first floor you'll find the large foyer, living room with wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room, main and a second kitchen, sizeable living/dining combination, a laundry closet, two bedrooms and a full bathroom. Both kitchens boast brand new white shaker cabinets with granite countertops and new stainless steel appliances. The 4 bedrooms and another full bath are located on the second floor. This home is cooled by central A/C and heated by hot forced air. More home attributes include a full finished basement, with a half bath, another laundry area, utilities and extra storage, along with a bonus room that could be your office, rec room, mancave, or maybe your home gym. Great potential! Speaking of potential, head over to the expansive backyard with an inground pool. You have space for just about anything: a large deck, gazebo, or simply enjoy nature. This house is rounded up with a spacious driveway that could hold 10+ cars. Well, don't wait. Come and see your new home!

    "When you buy a home look into the area. Take a walk around the development and don't think it's out of line to ask someone outside about the neighborhood and people. If I could turn back time I would've done exactly that with Middlesex and Starlit Drive. FLOODS FLOODS FLOODS Bad attitudes, crumby neighbors and not a good place to raise a family."
