Welcome to one of Dentons most enchanting hidden retreats a beautifully restored and thoughtfully updated 1941 Cape Cod tucked among towering trees, lush gardens, and comfortable living spaces in the heart of town.

The gracious living room features a wood burning fireplace with gas insert, flanked by custom cabinetry and bookshelves, while the spacious dining room and updated kitchen featuring solid wood counters, shelved pantry and storage closet blend classic charm with thoughtful functionality. A screened porch overlooking the gardens provides the perfect setting for morning coffee, evening dinners, or quiet relaxation surrounded by nature. The outdoor setting is truly exceptional. Professionally curated gardens, mature trees, flowering plantings, stone pathways, and intimate seating areas surround a stunning heated in-ground 12X24X4 concrete pool with an additional 5X6 area with steps, creating a private backyard sanctuary rarely found in an in-town setting. Every element of the grounds has been thoughtfully designed to evoke beauty, serenity, and a sense of retreat.
