Beautifully sited with handsome stone architecture and wonderful curb appeal, this charming Cape Colonial has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated over the years. A welcoming entry hall introduces a warm and inviting interior with gracious living spaces and a comfortable, easy flow. The step-down living room is a particularly inviting gathering space, featuring a fireplace and built-in shelving. A first-floor bedroom, currently used as study, offers flexibility for guests, a home office, or a quiet reading room, with built-in bookshelves and a nearby full bath with a convenient step-in shower.

Granite countertops, a Bosch dishwasher, Samsung range with grill, and a charming bay window overlooking the grounds make this a welcoming space for everyday living. An especially appealing addition to the home, the den/home office was created as part of the 2012 expansion.
