AI comment

This renovated single-family home offers a rare combination of privacy, outdoor space, and proximity to Charlestown amenities. The flexible layout is a strong point, especially with a first-floor bedroom near a full bath and laundry. Recent updates such as quartz countertops, new stainless steel appliances, fresh paint, and new carpeting improve move-in appeal. Buyers should still evaluate the implications of an older 1900-built structure, the absence of listed parking, and the need to verify lot-size data.
