Mornings here start with coffee and pond views, taking a few extra minutes before the day gets moving. Set on 3 acres in Preston, this comfortable Cape offers room to settle into a routine that includes more fresh air and a little less hurry. In the kitchen, picture weekend breakfasts, something simmering on the stove, and conversations that carry on while dinner comes together. Farmhouse touches bring warmth to the updated interior, creating a setting that feels just as suited to a casual gathering as it does to a quiet evening at home. Spacious living areas leave room to spread out, whether you're hosting friends, settling in for a movie, or finding a comfortable corner with a book. With four bedrooms, you can make space for overnight guests, a home office, or a room devoted to the things you enjoy. Three bathrooms help keep daily routines moving and make hosting a little easier. Outside, the afternoon might mean tending a garden, tossing a ball in the yard, or pulling up a chair and letting your to-do list wait. The partially fenced yard offers a defined outdoor area, while the acreage gives you room to imagine how you'd use the space through the seasons. Pond views add to the peaceful backdrop without needing to go anywhere at all. The two-car garage means winter mornings can start without scraping ice off the windshield. With local amenities within reach, you can enjoy the breathing room of a country setting while staying connected to the places you need to be.
