About this House

You found it!!! This is just the perfect 2 bed, 2 bath, cape with tons of outdoor living space on a jumbo lot with tons of privacy! There are endless things you could do outside between the 2-car garage, the pool & brand new liner, 2 large and multi-tier decks, and all the gardens. The entire interior has been freshly painted, just waiting for you to add your own touches. In addition to all endless amounts of natural light from many windows and skylights, this home offers recessed lighting, central air, hardwood flooring, solid 6 panel doors, newer windows, extra insulation, and newer roof. In the colder months you can cozy up to the wood burning stove. Plenty of storage here, with both bedrooms having walk-in closets, and an over-sized laundry room/utility room. Here you can have the best of both worlds, a massive, private lot in a quiet neighborhood setting, just a stone's throw away from all major shopping & highways.
