About this home
This one is the total package: an adorable, completely updated bungalow perched on a quiet dead-end street, a block from the Fells Reservation, yet easily accessible to the T, Route 93, and other daily conveniences. Renovated from top to bottom over the past several years, you'll have the perfect blend of modern aesthetics without being boring, combined with thoughtful and functional use of space. The large south-facing front porch welcomes you into a spacious living room, formal dining room, and modern kitchen that features a coffee station, breakfast nook, pot-filler, and a chef-worthy range hood. Open both French doors for effortless flow between the kitchen and a new deck, which leads to a flat and private backyard. Perfect for summertime entertaining or everyday enjoyment. Also on the first floor is a bedroom and full bathroom with a refurbished claw foot tub. Head upstairs to find a bonus office space and two more comfortable bedrooms, including a primary with a truly luxurious-feeling bathroom with double vanity, steam shower, and heated floors. The entire home is equipped with heat pumps for AC, and other major updates within the last 4 years include a new combo heating/hot water system, new low-maintenance vinyl siding, new windows, and new roof. Each room in the house is wired with built-in speakers for easy immersive entertainment. Two driveways and an oversized garage offer plenty of room for off-street parking and extra workshop space. This special home has so much to offer with absolutely nothing to do but move in!

PROS
- Recently updated major components, including roof, windows, vinyl siding, combo heating/hot water system, and heat pumps for AC.
- Functional indoor-outdoor flow with French doors from the kitchen to a new deck and flat private backyard.
- Strong kitchen features, including breakfast nook, coffee station, pot-filler, chef-style range hood, and wine refrigerator.
- Flexible layout with a first-floor bedroom and full bath plus two upstairs bedrooms and bonus office space.
- Off-street parking is supported by two driveways and an oversized garage with potential workshop space.
CONS
- Verify lot size, as the acreage field appears inconsistent with the stated lot figure.
- Older 1930 construction means buyers should still assess structure, insulation, electrical, plumbing, and renovation quality.
- Listing does not specify parking count beyond one garage space, despite describing two driveways and an oversized garage.
- No HOA fee is listed, but buyers should confirm all recurring ownership costs, including taxes, utilities, and maintenance.
- Style is listed only as “Other,” so buyers may want to confirm property classification and records.
