Listing broker remarks

Buyer got cold feet! Enjoy coastal living without the lengthy list of projects! This move-in-ready home has had many of the major updates already taken care of, including brand-new carpeting in the living room and foyer, a new vent-free gas stove, new basement heater, updated electrical, and mini-splits installed in 2025 providing both heat and A/C. The tankless hot water heater was replaced in 2025, bathroom plumbing was replaced in 2024, and the roof is approximately 9–10 years old. The bedroom also features a walk-in closet, providing plenty of additional storage. Outside, the property offers a spacious backyard and driveway parking for two vehicles. The location is where this property really shines. Enjoy being close to Onset Beach and historic Onset Village, with convenient access to the Cape Cod Canal and Bourne Bridge, putting Cape Cod just minutes away. Beaches, boating, waterfront activities, dining, and recreation are all within easy reach. Whether you're searching for a primary residence, coastal getaway, or investment opportunity, this property offers a low-maintenance option in a location that makes it easy to enjoy everything Onset and the Cape Cod area have to offer. Buyers interested in rental use should perform their own due diligence regarding applicable requirements.— Amaral & Associates RE
