Move-in ready and full of charm in the heart of Hopedale! This lovingly maintained 2-bedroom ranch delivers big on updates, character, and low-maintenance living. Step through the classic wood front door with fanlight into a sun-filled living and dining space featuring gleaming hardwood floors, white beadboard wainscoting, and a handsome built-in bookcase. A corner nook just off the dining area is roughed for a pellet stove - ready for cozy, low-cost supplemental heat. The oak kitchen offers stainless appliances (stove, dishwasher, and disposal all 2019), a pull-down faucet, and a dedicated filtered-water tap. Both bedrooms charm in their own way - the primary bedroom has twin custom closets behind leaded-glass bifold doors and recessed lighting. The bath features a wood vanity. A cozy enclosed porch makes the perfect mudroom or morning coffee spot, and the expansive unfinished basement with interior access offers outstanding storage, workshop space, and laundry hookups. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard framed by an arborvitae privacy screen, a deck for entertaining, and a paved turnaround driveway. Big-ticket items are done: roof and gutters (2018), windows (2024-2025), water heater (2019), efficient hydro-air heating with central AC, added insulation (2015), new alarm system (2024), and leased solar panels (2024) that keep electric costs down. Town water and sewer. All of this minutes from Hopedale Pond, the Parklands trail network, and Hopedale's well-regarded schools, with quick access to Route 16, 140, and the 495 corridor. Nothing to do but unpack!
