This charming, south-facing, 2BR/1BA expanded Cape on 2.7 acres offers the unique combination of a simply-sized house with plenty of land for outdoor enjoyment. Retaining much of its original charm whilst providing many recent updates-- new roof, composite clapboard siding, cedar shingles, front entry porch, exterior doors, windows, exterior paint and trim, well pump, hot water heater, electrical improvements, insulation, stone walls, and more-there's still room to add your finishing touches. The small office on the first floor could serve double-duty as a bedroom/guest room and the laundry is located on the first floor for easy access. An oversized, detached, 2-car garage provides abundant storage space and a large workshop area. The separate shed is big enough for both gardening equipment and a chicken coop, if you'd like to create one. This property is conveniently situated near Pratt's Brook Park, the Yarmouth Community Garden, Freeport shopping, Route 295 access, and is just minutes from Yarmouth Village, with its award-winning schools. Need more living space? The house can be expanded in compliance with local building code, zoning and septic requirements. If it's already sized just right, you'll have an excellent alternative to a condo-- without restrictions-and enough land for vegetable and flower gardening, a fire pit, enjoying the birds and wildlife, and a welcome sense of privacy. This could be the rural oasis you've been waiting for. Come and see!
