Beautifully maintained hi-ranch that exudes the charm of a Cape style home. The inviting living room boasts a wood burning fireplace, built-in bookcase, stunning hardwood floors, all framed by a large picture window that floods the space with natural light. The adjoining dining room is equally impressive, featuring French doors that open onto an oversized wrap-around deck. This deck provides a serene view of a lightly wooded backyard, offering a perfect blend of outdoor living and closeness to nature. The eat-in kitchen, though compact, is thoughtfully designed and includes a convenient door leading to the rear deck. This allows for seamless indoor-outdoor flow, ideal for entertaining or enjoying a quiet meal amidst nature. The primary bedroom is a haven of comfort with two ample closets and beautiful hardwood flooring, ensuring a restful retreat. Modern mechanicals throughout the home have been updated, providing peace of mind and reliability. Also, a generator is available to ensure uninterrupted power during outages, adding an extra layer of security and convenience. An exceptional feature of this property is its potential for expansion. Positioned on a spacious 1-acre lot, the septic system is strategically located at the front of the house, leaving room for additions or modifications. This flexibility makes the home appealing as an condo alternative to those seeking a special living environment. It's truly a gem, offering modern amenities and room for future growth.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
