This charming Cape Cod is hitting the market, just blocks from Clark Park. Come see all of the space this lovely home offers -- including four bedrooms, an updated kitchen, and a fenced-in backyard, all on a corner lot. The living room has a woodburning fireplace and hardwood floors. Off the living room is a sunporch, freshly painted in 2026. A separate dining room flows into the kitchen, which was thoughtfully renovated. It features a large island, farmhouse sink, and stainless appliances. There's also a family room and full bathroom on the main level, making this a great space to entertain. Upstairs, the primary suite truly steals the show with its built-in bookshelves/reading nook, ensuite bathroom with large standalone tub, and spacious walk-in closet. There is a separate full bathroom upstairs as well, along with the other three bedrooms. Many of the rooms throughout the home have a fresh coat of paint. The small mudroom off the back deck has brand new flooring (new in 2026). In 2023, spray foam insulation was added in the attic, with extra insulation installed in the basement. This home also has two zones for heating and cooling, and the upstairs HVAC is high efficiency. Don't forget to check out the potential in the basement where you'll find a large bonus room that has a fireplace, as well. Schedule your showing today!
