About this home
Welcome to 47 Sanford Street, where inviting living spaces, a flexible floor plan, and exceptional bonus space come together. Step inside to warm hardwood floors and a bright, sun-filled living room that flows naturally into the dining area and kitchen, creating an easy layout for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features ample cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a center island with seating—perfect for casual meals, meal prep, or gathering with friends. Upstairs, you'll find three comfortable bedrooms, including a spacious primary, along with two full baths and flexibility for guest space or a home office. Outside, enjoy morning coffee on the welcoming front porch, summer dinners on the composite deck, and a fenced backyard with room for entertaining, gardening, pets, or play. A standout feature is the separate heated and cooled accessory building, currently used as a home gym and offering excellent flexibility as an office, studio, hobby space, or private retreat. The full basement provides additional room for storage, projects, or recreation. Five parking spaces add convenience, while nearby public transportation, parks, trails, shopping, and everyday amenities make the location equally appealing. A versatile home with spaces designed to adapt to the way you live. ** Showings begin Friday, 10/2. Open House Sat 10/3 and Sun 10/4 from 11:00AM-12:30PM. Offers deadline Tuesday, Oct 6th at 12PM. **
