About this home
Looking for a home that works beautifully whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or simply ready for something special? This renovated and expanded Cape is full of surprises! Tucked away on a dead-end street in Arlington’s coveted Morningside neighborhood near Stratton School, it was thoughtfully reimagined by a respected local builder to offer the rare luxury of true one-level living. The sun-filled main level features a spacious primary suite, second bedroom, guest bath, and a showstopping open-concept kitchen that flows effortlessly into the dining and family rooms. A charming fireplace and oversized picture window create an inviting setting for cozy evenings and memorable gatherings. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms and another full bath offer wonderful flexibility for guests, hobbies, or working from home. Outside, a large deck overlooks a private backyard framed by mature trees, perfect for summer dinners, weekend entertaining, gardening, or simply unwinding. Stylish, spacious, and incredibly versatile, this is the Morningside home you’ve been waiting for!

Morningside, located between Arlington Center and the Alewife Brook Reservation, is a residential and commuter-friendly Arlington neighborhood with leafy side streets and a low-rise, village-like feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Massachusetts Avenue and Mill Street corridor, where small storefronts, corner services, and steady foot traffic set the daily rhythm. Housing reads as classic Greater Boston: wood-frame colonials, tidy capes, and mid-century splits with deep setbacks and mature trees. Minuteman Bikeway access shapes routines with bike commutes and weekend loops. Nearby green space at Menotomy Rocks Park adds wooded trails and quiet overlooks. The vibe stays calm, with Arlington Center’s dining and civic life close by without dominating the streetscape.
