About this home

Experience the perfect blend of privacy and unparalleled convenience at the end of a quiet Riverside cul-de-sac in this beautifully maintained, manageable Cape Cod-style home. Ideal starter home, or for downsizers alike, this turnkey property offers the ultimate setup for accessible one-floor living, featuring the kitchen, living room, dining area, family room, home office, primary bedroom and a full bath all on the first floor. French doors from the office open directly to a flat, low-maintenance backyard bordered by a peaceful, protected forest buffer. The designated public schools - International School at Dundee and Eastern Middle School are both among Greenwich's highest performing public schools, consistently scoring well above state averages across core academic measures. The second-floor features two bright, spacious bedrooms with their own private bath, providing the perfect dedicated space upstairs. Adding to the home's exceptional versatility, the flexible basement can serve as a wonderful playroom, gym, yoga studio, or function as an additional bedroom with a full bath for a nanny or visiting guests. Complete with the highly coveted trifecta of municipal utilities-town water, town gas, and town sewer-this low-maintenance gem sits just 3 minutes from the Metro-North train station and 10 minutes from both Central Greenwich and the beach.
