SHOWINGS START 9/5 at the first open house. Welcome to this classic New England Cape, privately tucked away on a small private way and surrounded by a serene, wooded setting. From the moment you arrive, this home offers a rustic, comfortable feel with timeless character throughout. Step inside through the Vermont slate breezeway, where tall ceilings and exposed beams create a warm and inviting first impression. The spacious, expanded kitchen offers abundant storage, generous counter space, a well-appointed backsplash, and a charming coffee nook. The adjoining dining area provides the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee. The inviting living room features beautiful hardwood floors and a large wood-burning fireplace, creating a cozy gathering space that opens to a peaceful screened-in porch overlooking the private surroundings. A first-floor bedroom offers flexibility as a guest room or home office, while the recently renovated bathroom blends beautifully with the home's classic style. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with cathedral ceilings and excellent storage. The two additional bedrooms also offer generous closet space. Above the garage, bonus space provides endless possibilities for a studio, hobby area, playroom, or home office. Though unheated, it benefits from residual warmth from the pellet stove in the foyer. Outside, enjoy multiple spaces for relaxing and entertaining, including a large hardscape patio, screened porch, established flower gardens, and vegetable garden. A truly special property designed for enjoying all the beauty and charm of New England's seasons.
