There are so many things to love about this charming village Cape, it’s impossible to pick a favorite. The most obvious is the location, steps from gourmet pizza or a pancake breakfast, which you can balance with a stroll along the nearby towpath or a trip to the playground, just a short-cut away. There’s even plenty of space for recreation in the yard, newly fenced and landscaped by Baumley Gardens. Admire all those trees and flowers from the freshly stained wrap-around deck. New French drains keep the finished basement dry, while Andersen and Pella replacement windows ensure the upper levels are sealed tight. The kitchen is large with loads of storage, double Bosch ovens and island seating providing a casual alternative to the dining room. Both a sunroom and a first floor bedroom, adjacent to a renovated full bath, open to the outdoors. Hardwood floors continue upstairs, where a second bath, handsomely renovated in the same style, serves 2 bedrooms, one of which has a big walk-in closet and a dressing table/desk alcove. If ever there was a place to truly call “Home Sweet Home”, this is it!
