Move-in ready with high ceilings and abundant natural light, this home maximizes its living area with a flowing and efficient layout on two levels, plus tons of bonus space in the enclosed front porch, covered rear porch, side deck and large yard. Sellers have lovingly cared for the home and made several recent improvements including adding a half-bath, upgrading to 200-amp electrical service and installing an EV charger. Amazing location with so much to offer -- The Fells Reservation and Wright’s Pond are playgrounds for active types and nature lovers alike, the proximity to both 93, the Commuter Rail AND the Orange Line makes getting to work a breeze, and easy access to Medford Square, Somerville, Cambridge & Boston means you'll never run out of restaurant and entertainment options!
