This unique Cape Cod home for sale by owner is the perfect mix of a charming Cape Cod Cottage and large addition. The original portion of this lovely home was built in 1962. The "cottage" includes energy saving 8 ceilings, 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a wood burning fireplace in the 14x20 ft. living room and wood floors throughout including the kitchen. A 90 pane divided light window in the cozy dining room looks out over the park-like back yard, mature trees, large rhododendron and azalea plants and your buildable lot. The entire home is equipped with all new thermal pane double hung windows, security system, new gutters, a brand new title 5 septic system and a new 40 year roof in 2004.

The sensitive addition features a 24x28 Family Room/Great Room with amazing light, beamed cathedral ceiling, skylights, gas fireplace, pristine wood floors and French doors front and back with a view to your buildable lot in back and 50 year old rhododendron and azalea plants in front. This open and airy space has been used as an art gallery and showplace for the artist/owner for the last 10 years. A two car garage and 24x28 artist's studio/office with incredible built-in storage and a gas Jotul fireplace over the garage are all part of the 10 year old shingled addition. Hand made stone fences, a convenient circular driveway with its plant filled island, classic gray shingles, lush landscape that includes peonies, roses, dozens of hostas, iris, rhododendrons and azaleas and its private country-like setting make this home... truly, one of a kind.
