Description
Charming Cape on Corner Lot in Bellefonte This meticulously updated 4-bedroom, 2-bath Cape Cod home, situated on a lovely corner lot in Bellefonte, is move-in ready and full of charm. The kitchen underwent a complete renovation in 2010, featuring freshly painted cabinets, new hardware, counters, backsplash, tile flooring, and upgraded stainless steel appliances. It also benefits from new under-cabinet lighting installed in January 2024. Both bathrooms have been beautifully renovated, with new fixtures and re-tiled floors. The upstairs bathroom received a full remodel in 2020, including new plumbing, insulation, fixtures, and exhaust fans. The original hardwood floors throughout the first floor were sanded, stained, and resealed in 2010, while stain-resistant carpet was installed upstairs in 2017. The home boasts modern heating and cooling solutions, with ductless heat and AC added in 2014. Additionally, a new environmentally friendly wood-burning fireplace insert with a chimney liner and blower was installed in January 2024, capable of heating the lower level without the use of oil heat or mini splits. The great room features a cozy brick fireplace with an updated stainless steel chimney insert, creating a warm and inviting space for relaxation. The exterior of the home is equally impressive, with a fenced backyard that includes a lovely back patio, perfect for summer BBQs, added in 2012. The basement has been thoroughly updated with a sump pump and French drain installed in 2010, the floor sealed in 2013, and upgraded LED lighting. The garage received a 20-amp electrical service in 2018, providing ample power for various needs. The roof, completed in October 2022, comes with a lifetime transferable warranty, ensuring long-term peace of mind. Additional updates include a new sump pump installed in January 2011, a water heater replaced in 2017, and new rear gutters and downspouts installed in 2018. For added security, the home is equipped with a Simply Safe alarm system featuring front door and driveway cameras. This home is a perfect blend of modern updates and classic charm, offering comfortable living spaces and a welcoming environment. Don’t miss the opportunity to make this beautiful Cape your new home!
