Big and bright, it also offers a half bath and a handy mudroom area open to...Metropolitan Hill 4-plus bedroom, 1.5 bath home with bonus attic space, solar panels, and a massive back yard. Just beyond the enclosed front porch and foyer, a spacious 252 sq ft living room offers five windows and leads via French doors into the open kitchen and dining area. The kitchen has just what you need: a functional center island, ceiling-height cabinetry, and sleek appliances accented by dark-stained wood floors. Big and bright, it also offers a half bath and a handy mudroom area open to sliding glass doors, letting the outside in. The capacious fenced-in yard is a rare find: room for a large patio, gardens and year-round play. Upstairs, find four bedrooms and a full bath with soaker tub. And the bonus: one bedroom provides a walk-up to the semi-finished attic, allowing for a two-floor office or guest suite. Leased solar panels. Shared driveway and the right-side bay of the shared garage. Under a mile to Roslindale Village commuter train, farmers market, and local shops.
