Updated 1984 Cape on a level 0.6-acre corner lot in a quiet Gardiner neighborhood. With 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths (one on each floor), an attached oversized 2-car garage, and a partially finished basement, this nearly 1,400 sq. ft home with approximately 400 more sq. ft. in a partially finished basement lives larger than its footprint. Stairs from the driveway lead up to a refreshed shiplap mudroom with slate-look vinyl tile and built-in cubbies (the same space the attached garage opens into) so dirt and snow stay out of the main living area. A glass-paned insulated door opens into the heart of the home: a connected kitchen, dining, and living layout sharing wide-plank wood laminate flooring, light-gray walls, white crown molding, and recessed lighting throughout. The kitchen features oak cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless appliances (range, microwave, dishwasher, side-by-side fridge) that all stay. A three-pendant fixture marks the dining area, and a centerpiece staircase with stained oak treads and wood balusters anchors the floor plan and adds character to the home. The first floor also includes a quiet bedroom and a full bath. Upstairs, two more bedrooms tuck under the Cape's pitched ceilings each with a closet, gable end window and matching laminate flooring. A second full bath serves both upper rooms. The basement adds a partially finished recreation room with vinyl tile flooring and exposed ceilings, plus a separate utility area housing the newly installed oil-fired forced-hot-air furnace, and electric water heater, and front-load washer and dryer that stay with the home. Outside, the expansive yard includes a storage shed, fire pit, and patio, framed by mature trees for added privacy. Quick access to downtown Gardiner, schools, shopping, and I-295 make this an exceptionally convenient location. Homes like this don't last long, schedule your showing today!
