About This Home
Pretty as a picture! This charming Colonial has been lovingly cared for by the same family since it was built and is filled with warmth, character, and timeless appeal. Relax on the fabulous front porch or enjoy the spacious interior featuring large, sun-filled rooms, freshly painted walls, and recently sanded and stained hardwood floors. Currently configured as a 2-bedroom home, the floor plan offers the potential to easily convert it back to a 3-bedroom layout. Energy-efficient Mitsubishi ductless heating and cooling units were installed less than nine years ago, providing year-round comfort. Additional updates include a gas hot water heater (approximately 3 years old) and a roof that is less than 10 years old. The rear sun porch offers endless possibilities-bring your vision and create the perfect three-season retreat, home office, or cozy sitting area. Outside, the exceptionally deep backyard is ready to be transformed into your own private oasis. Conveniently located near shopping, restaurants, parks, and major commuter routes. Taxes per year are $7718.57
