All who walk up Beals Street to the JFK Birthplace can't help but notice the set of four charming brick houses on the left. They could be Boston row houses, except that each is standalone, with lots of windows on all sides. The first house, Number 34 Beals, has been lovingly maintained by one family for the past 57 years. It features a bow front, 3 fireplaces, fir floors, early 1900's detail, front porch, and backyard. With two stories and a basement, large rooms, new boiler, plus a 15 year old roof, it presents a great opportunity for updating! Incomparable location in the heart of Coolidge Corner, with a Walk Score of 94 (out of 100), just steps to shops, restaurants, buses, and the Green Line T - a 10 minute ride to downtown. Ask agent about parking, or get rid of that car! OPEN HOUSES Sat May 17 1:30-3:30pm and Sun May 18 11am-1pm. Offer deadline 1pm on Thurs May 22. See "Offer Guidelines" and "Add'l Information" documents attached to MLS.
