** MOTIVATED SELLERS **Welcome home to this charming Cape Cod style home offering 5 bedrooms and 1.5 baths conveniently located in the FRENCHS PARK neighborhood of Essex!! Close to shopping, restaurants, job centers, I-95 and I-695. A curved walkway bordered by colorful flowers leads you up to the front porch. You enter into a living room that leads through a dining room to the large newly upgraded kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, tile backsplash, and luxury vinyl flooring. There are cabinets and drawers galore for all of your storage needs as well as a generously-sized pantry. The large eat-in kitchen has lots of natural lighting to enhance the enjoyment of your meal times with family and friends. Stairs lead down to a slate tile mud area and the back door that opens to a welcoming large backyard that is fenced and flat. The mature yardscape offers privacy and has many perennial plants that color the yard – a gardener’s paradise. The patio area is just perfect for those summer cookouts with family & friends. Two free-standing sheds in the rear provide additional ample storage. On the main level, you will also find the first 2 bedrooms and a beautiful bathroom which has recently been completely updated with marble tile surround and stone tile flooring. Next to the bathroom is a linen closet with a convenient laundry chute. A stairway with new Berber carpet leads to the upper level which includes 2 large bedrooms and a roomy attic area for additional storage. Each of the upstairs bedrooms also has a separate attic space at the back of the closet. The lower level features a finished basement with new luxury vinyl plank tile. It includes a Recreation/Family room, a large Utility room/Laundry area with a washer, a dryer, and an oversized laundry table. Adjacent to the laundry room is an area that could be used for an exercise room, craft room, or playroom for kids. Adjoining this area is the 5th bedroom and a half bath. Recent updates include New Roof Covering (on the house), New Seamless Gutters and Downspouts, New Furnace System, Upgraded Granite Countertops, New Appliances, New Bathroom, New Berber Carpet on stairs, New Flooring in the kitchen and basement, and fresh paint throughout the home. The home is larger than it appears from the outside and provides more than ample storage on every level of the house. This is one you don’t want to miss!! Move-in condition and ready for you to call it home! Easy to show, but hurry this one will not last!!
