Charming Cape Cod featuring a welcoming rocking-chair front porch, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood on a dead-end road. Situated on 1.25 acres, this property offers a fenced backyard, storage building, and two-car garage. The primary bedroom w/ ensuite bath is conveniently located on the main level. Recent updates include new luxury vinyl plank flooring, new windows, 2023 roof, septic recently pumped, new well pump, new light fixtures, new stove & refrigerator will convey along with the washer and dryer. A unique bonus is the secondary living space above the garage, complete with its own heating and air system, full bath, and private entrance separate from the main home.
