About this home
This cape delivers that little cottage-in-the-woods feeling while staying close to Wilbraham's schools and town center, completely private on the sides and rear where the yard meets the woods. A generous cleared yard and driveway leave room to spread out, plus a half-court for pickup games. Step inside and it's pure cozy: a wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, with sliders opening to a private rear deck made for slow mornings and slower evenings. The kitchen has its own balcony overlooking the yard, perfect for morning coffee. A third bedroom and full bath complete the main level, while upstairs holds two more bedrooms and another full bath. Kitchen and baths have been tastefully updated throughout, nothing to do but move in. Downstairs, the walk-out basement offers a private office with its own entrance, ideal for remote work, a home business, or guests who want their own space. Recent updates add real peace of mind: brand new hybrid water heater (installed 8/25), septic system replaced in 2021, a ThermoPride furnace, and Anderson 400 Woodright windows. Radon has already tested clean, with the report available. Whether you're buying your first home or looking to simplify life without sacrificing charm, this one is ready to make that easy.
