Tucked away in charming Arlmont Village, this classic colonial feels like home the moment you step inside. The first floor flows beautifully from the cozy and inviting living room with a fireplace, into an open-concept dining room and kitchen that’s ideal for casual dinners or lively entertaining. Catch the next playoff game in the family room and easy access to the back deck is ideal for a summer BBQ. A convenient half bath completes the first floor. Upstairs, flexibility is the name of the game. You’ll find three bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with its own full bath. Before entering the primary, the perfect bonus room can be used as a nursery, home office or additional bedroom. The partially finished basement provides yet another space for a playroom, hangout or home gym. Ideally located close to Route 2 and Alewife means you spend less time commuting and more time in your new home. This is more than just a house; it’s where your next chapter begins.
