Classic Cape Cod charm meets efficient, updated living in the heart of Leverett! This sun-filled home offers an open floor plan, a private southeast-facing backyard, and walkability to the pond, post office, school, library, and local farm stand. The main level features a bright kitchen, dining area, living room, and a family/office with French pocket doors. Walk out to a deck from the dining area for indoor-outdoor entertaining. A first-floor bedroom, a half bath, and laundry complete the main floor. Upstairs are two bedrooms, including one with French doors to a charming balcony, plus a full bath. Enjoy flexible heating with oil, a pellet stove, and two mini-splits. Two fully owned solar systems include a 24-panel electric system and a two-panel system for the hot water preheater, dramatically reducing energy costs. Solar panels were installed on a new metal roof in 2017. The front-facing roof is about mid-aged with 40-year-old shingles, APO. Siding is Hardie Siding, a composite of cement and cellulose fiber shingles. A new three-bedroom septic system (2025) adds peace of mind.
