Charming diamond-condition cape blending character, comfort and modern updates in the heart of West Babylon. A large covered L-shaped wraparound porch offers a private spot for morning coffee and welcoming curb appeal. Inside, hardwood floors in the kitchen and dining room combine with new laminate flooring in the living area for a warm, cohesive feel. The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, a Kenmore Elite 5 burner stove, stainless steel appliances, a new refrigerator and dishwasher, and flows into the dining room with a beautiful built-in hutch for easy entertaining. Thoughtful built-ins and details are found throughout the home: custom bookcases in the living room and den, wood blinds on all windows, and unique architectural touches in the bedrooms create cozy, character-filled spaces. The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet, while additional storage is found in closets, built-ins, and the basement with shelving, a laundry area, and a second refrigerator (in garage). Convenience is enhanced by two washer/dryer sets-one on the main floor and one in the basement. Outdoor living is a true highlight. The professionally landscaped, expansive backyard offers multiple patios and a gorgeous inground saltwater pool with a new filter and pump-perfect for summer gatherings and relaxed weekends at home. A separate 2½-car garage with pull-down attic storage plus an additional storage shed provide excellent space for tools, seasonal items and hobbies. Modern systems and smart-home features add comfort and efficiency: central air on the main level with wall-mounted ductless units in the bedrooms, separate hot water heater, paid-off solar panels, newer roof, and in-ground sprinklers. Security and peace of mind come from a Ring doorbell, August smart locks, Slomins alarm system and exterior security cameras. This charming cape offers the ideal blend of style, function and outdoor enjoyment-truly a must-see. *Disclaimer: Some photos have been virtually staged / AI-enhanced; original photos available upon request.
