Full of charming warmth and smart updates, this Cape-style home sits on a quiet street just around the corner from a neighborhood playground and only 1 mile from Hamilton train station. A fenced, level backyard is ready for fun and function with two storage sheds, a raised vegetable garden and a patio shaded by a pergola. Driveway parking and a convenient side entry lead into the updated eat-in kitchen, where quartz countertops, a gas GE range and recessed lighting create a bright, modern workspace. Easy-care vinyl flooring runs throughout the main level, complemented by soft, neutral paint colors and a sunny bay window in the living room. A crisp, all-white full bath stands just outside two quietly tucked-away corner bedrooms and stairs down to the recently finished basement. You’ll be pleased to find valuable extra living space with high ceilings, natural light and ample storage. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms feature true hardwood floors, including one with a walk-in closet. A gliding barn door reveals a stylish black-and-white full bath. Mini-split A/C units on both levels allow for efficient, customized comfort. Come see all the reasons why this is the essence of home sweet home!
