About this home

More than meets the eyes, this classic 4 bedroom cape is loaded with improvements and features that are almost too numerous and hard to find. Beautifully appointed living space that flows from room to room, offering convenient one level living along with additional space for the entire family. Choose your bedroom options between the 2 first floor bedrooms and the 2 second floor bedrooms, which can easily be repurposed. Let's tie a bow on this impressive charmer by claiming it's premiere West Side location, a true gem that we don't see very often.
