Warm and inviting Cape guaranteed to exceed your expectations

Brand-new to the market, this full-dormered Cape is located in a quiet and peaceful North Salem neighborhood and offers an abundance of space and versatility.

While the home is pleasing from the outside, with clean landscaping and attractive yellow exterior, many are surprised by the extent of warmth and space they find upon entering the front door.

The eat-in kitchen flows into the living room, where a large window bathes the area in natural light.

While the second floor boasts two huge bedrooms, there are two rooms on the first floor that could be used as bedrooms, as well. The space is so versatile — either room could serve as an office or a dining room, or be suited to fit whatever you need.

A finished basement lends more space to create your perfect sanctuary — a gym, playroom or family room — the possibilities are endless!

With ample closets and storage space, you will be able to eliminate clutter and keep a busy life organized.

The home has been immaculately cared for and has also received some upgrades over the past four years. These include a brand-new oil tank, water heater, a water filter, plus a garbage disposal, updated fuse box and refinished hardwood floors in two rooms on the main floor. In addition, the side porch has been completely replaced by a beautiful new sun porch and serves as a wonderful retreat.

Convenience is key with a full bath found on each floor. Also, New Englanders will appreciate the benefits of an attached garage.

Outside, you will find a beautiful, fully fenced-in backyard. The private, flat lawn is perfect for summer entertaining and games or creating a colorful garden.

Potential homeowners will be thrilled with the location. While conveniently located to commuter routes, shopping and Witchcraft Heights Elementary School, the neighborhood is quiet, charming and friendly.

This home is of solid construction and built to last. The versatility of the space makes this home truly appealing to everyone.
