This custom 3 bed, 2 full bath Cape is anything but cookie-cutter; offering a flexible floor plan, serene outdoor destinations, and an incredible amount of room for hobbies, projects, creativity, and inspiration. The main level makes everyday living easy. Featuring first floor laundry, 2 bedrooms, and a luxuriously renovated full bath w/ walk-in shower & soaking tub, you'll have all the convenience and opportunity for one floor living. Upstairs feels like a private retreat of its own, with an open loft, second full bath, walk-in closet, and oversized bedroom. Think private primary suite, guest retreat, home office, or simply a quiet space to unwind. Looking for a quiet place to enjoy a good book, watch the rain, and sip your morning coffee? The 3-season sunroom might just become your favorite spot in the house. Offering a seamless transition to the outdoors, step out onto the deck and take in the peaceful gardens and lush surroundings. Across 13 acres, what you're really getting is something truly special; breathing room, a natural backdrop for your life, and the kind of privacy that you can't manufacture. And if you need SPACE, keep reading. The 2 car garage/workshop is a dream for anyone with tools, toys, a serious hobby, or simply too much stuff for an ordinary garage. The full basement adds a whole new level of possibilities. Multiple points of entry, two sets of double doors, and a second driveway providing direct access make it an incredibly versatile space for storage, projects, or additional finished living space.

748 Old Best Road is interesting, versatile, and full of opportunity. With room to live, create, work, garden, and wander, this is a home that invites you to do more of what you love.
