Listing broker remarks

This home is truly a doll house! Hardwood flooring throughout with wood burning fireplace in the living room. French doors that open up to the large front to back sunroom with its walls of windows for great natural light. Knotty pine gives it the classic cape cottage. Two bedrooms with closets. Full bath. Country kitchen could use updates but with a bit of work you can really make this come to life. Large fenced in backyard with enclosed screened porch makes great summer dining or just outdoor entertaining with small, attached shed. Patio area and outdoor shower add to the extras in the private yard. This property offers ample outdoor space for relaxation or recreation. It's a charming home with off street parking and just a short stroll to the saltwater beaches. Easy access to all major highways. Wonderful beach community! Tons of great restaurants in the area as well as shopping at the Wareham Crossings outdoor walking mall.— Cape Landing Real Estate
