With more than enough room for everyone, this sunny + spacious home is perfectly situated on a large, corner lot directly across from Poet's Corner Park! The seller has begun the heavy lifting in transforming this 1960s split-level into an updated, energy-efficient home that is now ready for your personal touches in the kitchen & bathrooms. The electrical system has been upgraded to accommodate the brand new Solar Panels installed in 2020 which have eliminated all electric bills, a new roof was installed in 2020, brand new A/C, insulation added, updated windows, new flooring in lower level family room, wired for high-speed Ethernet, and freshly painted living room & bedrooms. You'll also love the level rear + side yards w/irrigation system and vegetable beds just waiting for summer activities! While there is plenty of space to work from home, you are only 7 mins to Alewife & have easy access to Rt.2, I-95, restaurants + shops in Arl. Heights, Trader Joes, Starbucks & Dallin Elementary.
