Tucked away on a private 0.67-acre lot in Lee, this charming 1962 Cape offers the kind of warmth and character that makes a house feel like home. Inside, beautiful hardwood floors, sun-filled rooms, and a cozy brick fireplace create an inviting backdrop for everyday living and gatherings with friends and family. The heart of the home is the beautifully updated eat-in kitchen, where navy cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a farmhouse sink bring a timeless, welcoming style to the space. With 1,442 square feet of living space, three generously sized bedrooms, and two baths, there is plenty of room to settle in and make it your own. A bonus room on the first floor offers a versatile space for a home office. The unfinished basement provides excellent storage and additional flexibility for your needs. Outside, the level backyard provides a wonderful setting for summer gatherings, gardening, or simply enjoying the space and privacy this property has to offer. A paved driveway leads to a one-car garage, while the wooded backdrop adds to the natural appeal of the lot. Located in the rural community of Lee, this home offers a lovely sense of escape while remaining just minutes from the University of New Hampshire in Durham and everyday conveniences. If you have been looking for a home with classic Cape character, a beautifully updated kitchen, and room to enjoy the outdoors, this one is worth a closer look. Showings begin at the Open House on Saturday, September 19th, from 10:30am - 12:00pm.
