About This Home
Practical perfection meets prime location in this refreshed Colonial. The bright, open layout showcases an updated kitchen with crisp white cabinets, stainless appliances, and black hardware that pops with modern contrast. Hardwood floors flow seamlessly through the main living spaces, while the enclosed front porch offers versatile space for a home gym or mudroom. The fully fenced yard delivers urban zen with its no-maintenance design - think patio and mulched gardens perfect for container plants. A workshop in the basement adds maker-space potential, while the one-car garage and two-car driveway handle parking with ease. Nearby is Whole Foods, coffee shops, restaurants, elementary schools, commuter rail, and parks. This turnkey home balances easy living with incredible accessibility - where convenience meets comfort in a thoroughly modern package.
