About This Home
Picture-perfect, charming 5-bedroom, 2-bath dormered and expanded Cape with a 2 car garage in sought-after Lordship offers the perfect blend of timeless Cape charm and modern updates. Just a short walk to private Russian Beach, with Short Beach and Long Beach also nearby, this special home offers a relaxed coastal lifestyle. Inside, you'll find a warm and welcoming interior highlighted by a formal dining room and a large custom kitchen and a huge island complete with a breakfast bar and more recently, the seller added a new refrigerator, dishwasher, oven and microwave. The sunny living room boasts a beautifully redesigned fireplace featuring a custom mantle, granite surround and insert. The first-floor bath was remodeled, while hardwood flooring was added to all upstairs bedrooms. Major improvements provide peace of mind, including a new hot water heater in 2023 and new boiler for forced hot water heat in 2024, and the chimney has been regularly serviced with a new cap installed in 2020. The finished basement had a carpet and ceiling refresh. The backyard that is so inviting is perfect for entertaining and includes a deck as well as a stamped concrete patio, wood-burning firepit, professional landscaping with river rock and plantings, storage shed and a charming beachy outdoor shower-the perfect finishing touch after a day at the beach. A truly special home offering timeless character, generous space and an exceptional beachside location.
