    What's special

    You will feel the charm and character as you enter off the driveway, through the pantry, into the updated kitchen with newer counters. The kitchen opens to the dining room with built-in hutch, office with wood stove and living room with gas fireplace —four bedrooms on the second floor and walk up attic for storage or a potential master conversion. Plenty of storage throughout the house. Outside you will find a large barn and large half acre lot with a fenced backyard and in-ground pool perfect for parties. This sun-filled house is located just a few minutes from major routes and all Cape Ann has to offer. Good bones and the recent updates will give you a great start on your renovation projects. An additional .15 acre lot across the street is also available. See MLS #: 73241453 Come make this house your home.
