Property Description
A governor's driveway welcomes you to the property and leads to the attached oversized two-car garage. Inside, the main level offers a comfortable and functional layout with a living room, dining room, kitchen, office, additional family/game room space, a first-floor bedroom, and a full bath.
The kitchen is filled with natural light and features oak cabinetry, a gas stove, a KitchenAid dishwasher, a refrigerator, a cathedral ceiling, a skylight, and updated LED lighting. Just off the kitchen is a large office with built-in cabinetry, a desk area, oversized windows, and abundant natural light. Whether you need a work-from-home setup, a creative studio, a homework hub, or a household command center, this room is ready to be used from day one.
The living and dining areas offer classic character, including parquet flooring, while the family room provides a comfortable place to relax, entertain, or gather around the gas fireplace. The layout offers both defined spaces and plenty of room to spread out, making it easy to imagine everyday living, holiday hosting, or quiet evenings at home.
Upstairs, the traditional Cape Cod floor plan continues with two bedrooms and a full bath. These upper-level rooms offer privacy and charm, with the cozy feel Cape Cod homes are known for.
The lower level adds even more usable space and flexibility. Here you'll find a game room, storage areas, laundry space, bathroom, and an additional bedroom area with a gas fireplace. This level offers options for a grand private master suite, guest space, hobbies, recreation, or future updates depending on your needs. A newer central vacuum system has been installed in the basement, and the home also features an instantaneous hot water heater.
The outdoor living areas are another major part of the home's potential. A large screened-in room with an electric heater offers a wonderful transition between indoors and out and opens to an Omni Stone patio. From there, you can access additional backyard areas, including the hot tub space and the former pool area. The backyard is flat near the home and extends toward the hillside, creating a private setting with mature landscaping and room to rethink the outdoor spaces.
Above the oversized garage is an additional unfinished room with electric and lighting already in place. This space offers exciting future potential for storage, a studio, a workshop, a hobby room, or a possible finished living area, depending on the buyer's plans and any required approvals.
The home also includes owned solar panels, offering an added energy-efficient feature without a lease transfer to navigate.
With its generous lot, mature landscaping, oversized garage, dedicated office, multiple fireplaces, flexible living spaces, and room to grow, this Cape Cod is full of possibility. It is a home with charm, space, and the kind of potential that allows a buyer to create something truly special.
