The oversized front porch with breathtaking westerly views offers both the perfect spot to unwind and a warm welcome into this well maintained, three bedroom cape in the vibrant City of Beacon. Not far from the renowned hiking trails of Mount Beacon and just 2.4 miles from Metro North, this mountainside home is conveniently located yet feels like a retreat. Over 2000 square feet of space provides endless options and flexibility. The living room, dining room and kitchen enjoy an open layout and are adjacent to a rear entrance with enclosed porch, mudroom or pantry. A newer, high efficiency induction range will delight any chef. Currently, there are two bedrooms on the first floor as well as a full bath. The larger, complete with separate entrance, is used as a studio and an office and could easily accommodate an en-suite bath and kitchenette. The primary bedroom encompasses the entire second story and features double closets, exposed brick and a bright and private sitting area. Even more storage space is easily accessible on this level. A full garage with an extra high ceiling for car enthusiasts (room for a lift!) also has additional attic space. The corner lot is expansive, completely fenced and has a big shed with electric and adjacent covered potting/gardening area. The full, dry basement houses the laundry area and has plenty of room for a workshop, craft room and even more storage space. The high efficiency System 2000 boiler and newer spray foam insulation keep energy costs down. Presenting value, space, location and potential, this is the home you've been waiting for.
