About this home

Charming, three-bedroom cape situated on a gorgeous lot. Pride in ownership is evident throughout from the gleaming hardwood floors to the kitchen. The first floor features a spacious living room with abundant natural light. The kitchen includes stainless appliances, granite countertops, generous cabinet space, and windows overlooking the backyard. The home also offers the convenience of a first-floor bedroom. Two large upstairs bedrooms each include a skylight. The backyard provides plenty of space for entertaining with a large deck that opens to the mudroom and garage. An unfinished basement offers the potential for future updates. All of this located on the Burlington line close to the commuter rail, shops, and restaurants.
