Property Description

Perched at the crest of Redding Ridge on a lane shared by only five homes, this beautifully restored Cape occupies a truly commanding position. The property encompasses an entire side of South Lane, framed by original stone walls and mature trees that provide a sense of established privacy. In a region known for its rolling terrain, this home offers the rare luxury of an entirely usable, "pancake-flat" lot, providing the perfect vantage point for unobstructed views of both the sunrise and the sunset. The interior of the residence preserves its classic New England charm while embracing a modern, open-concept flow. Original wood-beamed ceilings and hardwood floors run throughout, lending an air of historic authenticity. The heart of the home is a sweeping living room anchored by a large central fireplace, flanked by thoughtful built-ins. For those who love to host, the formal dining room and renovated spaces make this house a true entertainer's delight, with practical upgrades like central air and main-floor laundry. The living space extends gracefully outdoors through an enclosed three-season porch, which serves as a bright transition to the backyard. This porch leads directly to a raised flagstone deck which offers peaceful views of the level grounds. With three generous bedrooms, two fully renovated baths, and a separate two-car garage, this home offers a timeless ridge-top lifestyle that is as functional as it is picturesque.
