Listing broker remarks

In a neighborhood known for its beautiful homes and spacious lots, this inviting Cape offers a flexible floor plan, thoughtfully updated living spaces and an exceptional backyard designed for gathering, relaxing and enjoying the outdoors. The eat-in kitchen opens to a comfortable family room with views of the private yard and beyond. Step outside to a brick patio surrounded by mature landscaping, with plenty of room to entertain, play or unwind around the firepit. Back inside, hardwood floors carry through the main level, where living and dining rooms provide additional space for entertaining and everyday life. The first-floor primary suite is a standout, with a private bath featuring a steam shower and a walk-in closet, while a mudroom and first-floor laundry add everyday convenience. Upstairs are three generously sized bedrooms, an office and full bath. The newly finished lower level adds even more versatility, with a ¾ bath and generous recreation space. Recent improvements include a new heat pump/HVAC system, fully refinished basement, fresh interior paint, updated kitchen appliances, electrical upgrades with recessed lighting and smart switches, and added second-floor insulation. An oversized garage completes the home, while association tennis courts and access to Four Mile Pond for kayaking, canoeing and fishing, and easy access to nearby hiking trails add another dimension to this special Boxford setting.— Leading Edge Real Estate
