Classic mid-1920's charm and detail abound throughout this oh-so-comfortable, "just right" sized home that hosts two full baths and is beautifully sunlit. The living room centers around the wood-burning fireplace with stone hearth, while the dining room features a built-in china cabinet and opens to the kitchen of vintage design. The den/office opens to the screen porch, a perfect place to gather and enjoy meals and conversation during our glorious seasons. Three generous bedrooms, two with very generous closets and full bath with skylight and vintage detail. The flat backyard offers room for recreation and gardening, making for your own oasis. The sellers have updated the windows, roof and heat within the last 10 years. One car garage, ample parking. Steps to the Horace Mann school and playground, as well as Franklin Square, Whole Foods, bus and more, and a short walk to the Highlands train. Sweet!
