About this home

This five-bedroom, four-bath Cape on Worcester’s West Side combines a flexible three-level layout with warm finishes, comfortable gathering spaces, and room for a variety of living arrangements. Hardwood floors and recessed lighting connect the main living areas, beginning with a bright fireplaced living room and full-sized dining area. The centrally located kitchen features warm cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and a generous peninsula, with an easy flow into the sunken family room. From here, step directly onto the expansive rear deck overlooking the fenced backyard. The first-floor primary suite also opens to a balcony, and includes new carpeting and a private full bath. A second bedroom, full bathroom, and a laundry closet complete the main level, while two additional bedrooms and another full bath are located upstairs. The finished walk-out lower level offers the home’s greatest flexibility. An ADU with a fifth bedroom, a fourth full bath, a second kitchen, a living area, a private laundry, and a separate exterior entrance. This versatile arrangement works beautifully for multigenerational living, extended-stay guests, a private retreat, or simply more room to spread out. Outside, enjoy established landscaping, a dedicated garden area, storage shed, hot tub, and plenty of room to relax or entertain. A two-car attached garage, paved driveway, mini-split comfort, and valuable storage complete this spacious and adaptable home.

About Salisbury

Street

Salisbury Street, located between Forest Street and Park Avenue, is a residential and institutional Worcester neighborhood with stately hillside homes and a museum-and-campus corridor. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Salisbury Street–Park Avenue junction, where galleries, lecture halls, and café tables set a steady daytime rhythm. The Worcester Art Museum anchors the area with a landmark façade and a calendar of exhibitions. Nearby, the Higgins House at the Worcester Historical Museum adds a local-history counterpoint in a classic setting. Side streets mix early-20th-century colonials and brick apartment buildings, while Institute Park’s paths and lawns shape an outdoorsy pause.
