About this home

“Picture-perfect” almost says it all about this charming, cedar-sided Colonial with winding brick paver walkway and beautifully landscaped lawn on a tree-lined Salem street. The rest of the story about this 1950 gem is inside. Here you’ll find hardwood flooring in the fireplaced living room and the dining area with classic wainscoting fully open to an well configured L-shaped kitchen with a center island and a substantial amount of cabinetry. This chef’s haven leads to a bright family room w/ 2 skylights and slider access to a Trex deck and fully fenced yard. A full bath w/ 5-foot high wainscoting is convenient and captivating. 3 bedrooms - all with hardwood flooring - on the 2nd floor include a primary suite with a cozy sitting area, 2 closets and a roomy ensuite bath that has laundry facilities. Beautiful beadboard paneling is a quaint touch in another full bath on this level. The 1-car garage completes the package!
