This charming Cape on a picturesque corner lot in Hollymead has been tastefully updated and meticulously maintained. Half-acre parcel is a gardener's dream with fenced backyard, rain barrels, dual storage sheds and mature perennials- Peonies, Azaleas, Dogwoods, Japanese Maples and more. Renovations have delivered an open main level w/ gleaming Cherry hardwood floors and chef-ready kitchen w/ granite counters, 6-burner commercial range/hood and Fisher & Paykel double-drawer DW. Both bathrooms were comprehensively updated - heated tile floors, new fixtures and premium Toto/Bio Bidet toilets. Other notable improvements: extensive recessed lights, custom cabinetry/shelves and an oversized gas FP (powerful enough to heat most of the home in a power outage!). Mechanical peace of mind is guaranteed with a high-efficiency 20 SEER HVAC (2020), new water heater (2024), newer gutters (2022), roof (2018) and fully encapsulated, conditioned crawlspace. A paved drive provides ample parking and large deck is ideal for entertaining. This home lives much larger than its square footage suggests! Who knew you could find comfort, style & efficiency in a great neighborhood below $450K? A short walk to pool, Hollymead Elem & Lakeside Midddle schools.
