About this home

THE INTRODUCTION: Before you even lay eyes on the home, you are experiencing the lovely tree lined street with sidewalks and well kept homes either side, then you are met with the timeless stone facade and inviting dormer windows reminiscent of the cape cod aesthetic, with that stunning Autumn Blaze Maple standing to attention, WELCOME HOME! THE MAIN LEVEL: As you enter, you are met with a sophisticated formal living room, warm natural light flooding through the bay window, wood burning fireplace with striking brick detail with the original oak floors completing the refined look. The dining room with original built ins, a peak through to the rear yard and a door leading to the quaint three season porch....You know your morning brew is going to taste better living here as it receives all the morning sun! The kitchen with its rich color palette, functional layout, two ample sized bedrooms and central full bath round out this level. THE PRIMARY BEDROOM: The upper level with its picturesque dormer windows, great storage and ample size has maintained the original features of home with the built-ins and vibrant blue walls. THE LOWER LEVEL: Expansive and cozy at the same time, a welcoming space for relaxing in front of the TV, a flex space and another area used for visitors staying that can easily be changed into a fourth bedroom with ease, an updated 3/4 bathroom + storage round this level out. THE REAR YARD: Adjacent to the three season porch you have the limestone patio lined with hydrangeas perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining, a flat grassed area that is fenced and a two-car garage.

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
