About This Home

Charming and updated Cape Cod home just a short walk from the lake! This property includes 3 PINs resulting in a spacious .4 acre lot, perfect for your custom garage. The home features 2 bedrooms, 2 updated full bathrooms, an updated kitchen and a first floor office, ideal for remote work! One of the reasons the current seller originally purchased this home was because of the extensive recent upgrades including a new roof (2016), boiler and radiant heat (2015), central A/C installation (2017), new windows (2018), on-demand water heater (2018), remodeled kitchen and bathrooms (2017), spray insulation in the attic and cellar, additional insulation throughout the home (2017/2019), a new refrigerator (2021), nest thermostat, updated outdoor lighting (2021), the updated electric system in the attic and downstairs bedrooms/bathroom (2017) and a brand new washer (2024). Enjoy the beauty of the Certified Wildlife Habitat that makes up the front yard featuring beautiful conservation-friendly native plants that require NO watering! The adorable registered Free Library will remain if the buyer wishes to keep it. The spacious lot also offers partial views of the lake and includes your very own pear and cherry trees! With public Briar Beach and a boat launch are nearby, you can easily embrace the lake lifestyle!
