About this home
STUNNING NEW RENOVATION with no expense spared in a desirable Wakefield location. Nothing to do but unpack. This stylish cape is situated on a very spacious lot. Large, level back yard is perfect for entertaining. Current owners have taken care of every detail for the new buyers with craftsmanship and pride. ALL NEW: Harvey windows, gas boiler, appliances, granite counter tops, insulation, brick front stairs, and much more. All plumbing and electrical has been replaced top to bottom. (200 AMP ELECTRIC) Wakefield cabinet makers custom built all cabinets and shelving throughout the home, including the kitchen and bedroom built-ins. Entire second floor was unfinished prior to renovation. Wait until you see it now. Relax by the fire in this tastefully updated, functioning fireplace. WHAT ABOUT THE LOCATION? Just a half of a mile to both the lake and I-95. Only a tenth of a mile to the Dolbeare Elementary School and 2 miles to the Market Street in Lynnfield. OPEN HOUSE SAT AND SUN 12-2
