    What's special

    Welcome to 879 Francis Ave, where timeless Cape Cod charm meets thoughtful modern updates. This inviting 3-bedroom home offers 1,140 square feet filled with warmth, character, and natural light. Refinished original white oak floors flow throughout much of the main level, while the gracious living room creates a cozy gathering place with its fireplace and classic built-in shelving.

Two comfortable bedrooms and a beautifully renovated full bath are conveniently located on the main level. Upstairs, a spacious third bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with plenty of room for a sitting area or home office. Thoughtful improvements include a new roof (2020), Marvin windows and French doors, new HVAC, chimney tuckpointing, and a new cedar fence. Outside, the expansive fenced backyard provides a wonderful setting for gardening, entertaining, or relaxing on summer evenings, while the detached 2-car garage provides additional parking and storage. A special home where classic character, modern comfort, and pride of ownership come together.
