AI comment

This renovated Colonial offers substantial flexibility across three levels, with enough bedrooms and baths to support larger households, multigenerational use, or rental-oriented ownership. The updated kitchen, first-floor laundry, basement access, patio, and private backyard add practical day-to-day appeal. Its proximity to Roslindale Village amenities, parks, public transportation, Forest Hills MBTA, and downtown Boston access strengthens convenience. However, the tenant-in-place lease through 2/28/27 materially limits near-term owner-occupancy options and should be central to any purchase decision.
