About 40 Sunset Terrace
There is no corner of this charming Essex Village reproduction Cape that has not been beautifully refreshed and refined by its current owner. The professionally-landscaped grounds, bordered by classic hydrangea and privet, feature flowering Hawthorn and Crabapple trees. Inside - freshly painted throughout - the gracious first floor features hardwoods, custom millwork, modern conveniences and cozy spaces. The living and dining rooms - shuttered for privacy - are complemented by new lighting, a wood-burning fireplace, wrap-around bookcases, and a nearly-invisible Frame TV. The stunning new kitchen features honed Carrara countertops, brass fittings, stainless appliances, a deep Belfast sink, and an adjoining, newly enclosed breakfast room. A sunlit main-floor flexible space is ideal for a quiet home office, guest room or playroom and, together with an updated full bath, completes the first floor. Upstairs, there is a second updated full bath along with two spacious and skylit bedrooms featuring neutral palettes, oversized closets and wall-to-wall seagrass. Downstairs, the partially finished walk-out basement includes a multi-media space suitable for gym or home theatre, plus a laundry room, utility room, and one-car garage.
