Medford Home of the Week: 31 Palmer St.

A double plot and extensive renovations make this Cape the smart buy of the week.

Prospective Medford homebuyers will be more than impressed when they learn of the fabulous structural and aesthetic updates this 61 year-old Cape has recently received. Some renovations will be immediately noticed and appreciated and others are hidden yet vital components of the home's constructive integrity; both will be incredibly valued and appreciated by its future owners. Within just the last three years, this property has received a new roof, siding and water heater and a renovated kitchen, master suite and bath.

With the significant tangibles now addressed, it is now time to turn to comfort and security and this home completely exceeds all expectations. The front entry opens into a warm and spacious fireplaced living/dining room where family and guests will feel welcome and relaxed. This area, however, could be reserved for use as an oversized living room to host large gatherings with the viable option of the oversized eat-in kitchen where expansive dining space was given high priority in the blueprint. Three bedrooms and a full bath are also conveniently located on this level for residents who prefer single-floor living while the newly remodeled master bedroom with a large walk-in closet and a beautiful, spacious full bath with dual sinks are available on the second floor to provide more private accommodations.

The flourishing private double lot offers many outdoor or expansion options to its next owners and currently presents a flourishing landscape that includes evergreens, stone walls and mature plantings.
