57 HODGE RD

Dormers and bay windows amplify the charm of this expanded Cape occupying a large corner lot on the most convenient block in the Western Section. While the front yard is deep with lots of space for visitors to park, the backyard is even bigger, embraced by the privacy of stunning trees and mature plantings. A stone patio extending the length of the house is a serene setting for leisurely lunches. Cream colored walls and hardwood floors in excellent condition are clean and classic in the dining and living rooms, both with tall windows. The well-equipped, eat-in kitchen is also naturally bright with lovely views. Thanks to ample built-in cabinetry, the family room has a cozy vibe and an out-of-the-way study stores every necessity. The flow of distinct rooms is a pleasant departure from the open layouts lacking character that have fallen from favor with many buyers. Bedroom suites stand at either end of the second story, one with a renovated bathroom done in cool gray tile and the other with sweet window seats and a walk-in closet. Two more bedrooms in between share a hall bath. A cedar closet protects off-season clothes and linens. Don't miss the finished basement, accessible from the mud entry off the garage. Updated electrical systems and a generator are some of the unseen improvements.
