About This Home
Welcome to Windswept Ridge, one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Essex. First time offered by original owners, this 4-bedroom 3 bath Cape has great curb appeal. One floor living is possible with a first-floor bedroom and shower bath. Beautiful oak floors and nine-foot ceilings enhance the main living areas. The upper primary bedroom features spacious walk in closet and full bath with whirlpool tub. An added feature is a large office or exercise room off the primary bedroom. There is a workshop/art studio off the 2-car garage for the hobbyist. The roof and AC condenser are new. The deck is original and is showing its age. Some other cosmetics needed as well. At the end of the Cul de sac is Essex Land Trust trails.
