Come see this inviting 4-bedroom, 2-bath Cape Cod with an open floor plan and a nicely updated interior. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances (stove, microwave, and dishwasher from 2022), granite countertops, and upgraded cabinetry. Both bathrooms were refreshed in 2022, and the home offers a mix of newer flooring—updated laminate in the main living areas, kitchen, baths, and laundry room (approx. 3 years old), along with brand-new carpet added in 2025 to all bedrooms and the staircase. The primary bedroom includes its own full bath, and the home has been freshly painted in 2025 for a clean, move-in-ready feel. Major system updates include a roof that’s about 3 years old and an HVAC system installed approximately 4 years ago. Outside, enjoy a large fenced backyard with a deck, a storage shed, and a covered front porch. Conveniently located near military bases, the interstate, shopping, and more.
