About this home

This beautiful, spacious, sun-splashed 5 bed, 3 full bath colonial is waiting!! This stunning home boasts the beauty and serenity of a large fenced in yard (accessed by walkout basement), growing an amazing array of colorful plantings due to years of cultivation by the green-thumbed owner! Grow your own herbs as you prepare meals on your professional grade range! Enjoy the view from the sunny eat in kitchen, or from either of the two decks which overlook the yard. AMAZING master suite w/private bath, huge walk in closet and even it's own private deck...perfect for sipping coffee on a quiet morning! Conveniently located, this home is less than a mile from Trader Joes, Starbucks, shops and restaurants, and amenities of Mass Ave, yet the same distance to jump on the Minuteman Trail, and LESS than half a mile from the paths of Sutherland Woods. All this, yet mere minutes from 128, Route 2, and public transportation, make this is a true commuter's dream! This one really does have it all!!
