Dear Future Homeowners

As a real estate professional who has sold hundreds of homes, I’m always delighted when I encounter a property that truly feels like a home. The owner here was in the same place you are now when she and her husband bought this adorable Cape Cod in 1978. This home was the centerpiece of all the love this family experienced through the past four-plus decades. From Thanksgivings shared with their big extended family to close, lasting friendships made on this cute street, this home has been the hub of so much fun, comfort, and rest.

Throughout this property magazine, I have highlighted special and pertinent details along with features that provide you with descriptive photos as well as necessary information. I hope that you not only enjoy learning more about this beautiful home, but that you also find this magazine’s contents informative and helpful in your home search. I am grateful for your interest and consideration. I’m certain that this home will be as special to its new owners as it was to the last.
