Intelligently and lovingly maintained and improved by the current owners, this house is in move-in condition. The 1933 stone house sits above the road with a beautifully landscaped yard of mature trees, shrubbery, and perennials. Approach the front door from bluestone steps. To the right of the front entry is a charming brick path that leads to the side, covered porch, and the backyard and patio. Enter into a spacious, light-filled foyer with a set of French doors directly ahead that leads to the private back patio. At the back of the foyer is the essential first floor powder room. To the right of the foyer is the spacious living room with windows on three sides, a beautiful fireplace , original oak flooring, and symmetrical proportions that easily accommodate a variety of seating arrangements. To the left of the front door is the kitchen that was fully renovated in 2012, with thoughtful preservation of some original details, and , equally thoughtful, installation of radiant heat in the floor. There is nothing better than radiant heat! Adjacent to the kitchen is the formal dining room, that the current owners, for several years, furnished as a family room. From the kitchen, there is access to the partially-finished basement with walk-out steps, perfect as a casual hangout space. The kitchen also has an exit directly to the driveaway, adjacent to the garage, to make everyday living easy and efficient. Head up the gracious turned staircase to the second floor with three large bedrooms (one now used as the upstairs family-room), two full baths, one in the primary suite, and one set up as a Jack & Jill to serve the other two bedrooms. There is a "bonus" room at the top of the stairs , currently used as the necessary at-home office. On the third floor you will find two, sizeable bedrooms and an additional bath. Perfect, private space to offer guests a comfortable place to stay, more quiet office space, or a teenage refuge. Important upgrades have made in the past 10 years: e.g. roof-2018, kitchen-2012, A/C - 2018. Close to commuter rail, Chestnut Hill, and major highways, the location couldn't be better. The neighborhood is so quiet, you'll often see homeowners walking their dogs down the middle of the street. Nothing to do here, but move-in and make it your home! Well-priced, in this competitive market, you know it won't last long.
