    What's special

    Cape codCentral air conversionHigh schoolMerritt parkwayRanch style feelNew floorNew counters
    Welcome to 55 Walter Ave. and what could be your first home or a place to downsize. The owner has brought a number of upgrades to this 1952 Cape Cod. It has stood the test of time and is sure to give many more years of comfort and convenience. Elementary, middle, and high school are within walking distance, with Interstate 95 and the Merritt Parkway, just minutes away. Inside your sanctuary there is a combination of new with the opportunity to create your own finished brand. The kitchen was redone in 2023-24 with a new floor, new counters, backsplash, cabinets, and stainless steel appliances. Freshly painted throughout, and newly refinished floors give even the novice homeowner the opportunity to jumpstart their own personal style. Two bedrooms and a living room give a ranch style feel with a newly 2024 remodeled full bathroom on the first floor. A walk up stairway to the partially finished attic offers two bonus rooms, storage and more. The unfinished basement has great potential with a walk out to a one car garage. The house is oil heated with a newer Thermo-Pride hot air furnace which is ready for central air conversion in the future. New electric hot water tank in 2023. A new oil tank was purchased but not installed in the event the new owner wishes to relocate the existing one. The exterior was painted this year along with a new roof in 2023. The house is ready willing and able for its next owner(s) to make it their home.
