Multiple offers have been received, and the seller is requesting that all best and final offers be submitted no later than 6:00 PM on July 17th. Investor special - tucked away on a serene street, this charming cape cod is awaiting its new owner(s). This home is in need of a good amount of TLC, but has charm and original features that people are looking for. This 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath home is full of bright sunlight, wood floors, and built-ins. The living room is spacious and yet at the same time could be cozy, warm and inviting with the fireplace. The dining room has all the space you need for large family dinners and parties with built-in corner units. The kitchen awaits your design touches. The back deck offers tiered entertaining options. Nothing is better than sitting on your back deck or patio, sipping coffee, reading a book or enjoying a glass of wine while talking to friends, family and neighbors. The back deck and patio provide a perfect place for grilling or hanging out with friends. The upstairs boasts 3-bedrooms and a full bath. The first floor has your BONUS family room along with a first floor bedroom and ensuite bathroom w/separate entrance which could be ideal for an in-law suite (if needed). The basement utility space could serve as a workout space (if you are so inclined), storage and is where the laundry room and ½ bath is located. You can walk out of the basement to the backyard. This is a terrific home in a sweet location, convenient to stores, restaurants and amenities! You will not be disappointed!
