Step into timeless character in the heart of Wawaset Park, one of the area’s most cherished and walkable neighborhoods. Homes like this simply aren’t built anymore. From the welcoming covered front porch and balcony above, to the charming dormer windows and classic architectural shingle roof, this home invites you in with warmth and grace. Inside, the foyer showcases beautifully maintained original hardwood floors and a graceful curved staircase that draws your eye to a landing overlooking the backyard. To the right, the living room offers a perfectly scaled gathering space, complete with built-in bookcases, French doors leading to the deck, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. Adjacent, a bright sunroom provides a flexible space for entertaining, relaxing, or working from home. The dining room is flooded with natural light and detailed with wainscoting and crown molding, while the expansive kitchen, renovated in the ‘90s, offers generous cabinetry, a built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator, double ovens, and a sunny breakfast nook. An adjoining family room delivers the open-concept design today’s homeowners love, with vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the backyard — ideal for movie nights, game days, or hosting friends. This space also connects to the detached garage, which includes a walk-up attic with additional storage. A freshly painted powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, you’ll find three bright bedrooms with beautiful wood floors, a hall bath with tub, and an en-suite bath with shower. The third level features two additional bedrooms and a recently updated bathroom — perfect for guests, a home office, or private retreat. The lower level includes a laundry area and ample storage space. Notably, the furnace and roof were both updated approximately 15 years ago. One of the standout features of this property is the backyard, larger than most in Wawaset Park, offering a spacious deck for grilling, circular flow between the living and family rooms for easy entertaining, and a fully fenced yard with charming low-maintenance gardens. Whether for pets, family, or quiet afternoons, this outdoor space is a rare find. This home beautifully balances the craftsmanship and details of its era with updated amenities and plenty of opportunity to personalize. And with Wawaset Park’s reputation as one of the most walkable, welcoming neighborhoods around, you’ll be meeting neighbors and making connections from day one. Schedule your tour today and experience all this special home has to offer!
