Coveted Moss Hill by the Arboretum! One of Boston's most beloved neighborhoods is JP's Moss Hill. A stunning promontory with seasonal views of downtown Boston, just across Centre Street from the Arnold Arboretum and a short walk to the Orange Line along the Emerald Necklace. This house has just undergone an elegant refresh with new kitchen counters, cabinet doors and floors, a new mudroom, fresh paint, lighting, ceiling fan on the side porch and a rear patio / driveway space. A charming colonial style with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, formal dining room and large living room with window seat. A real charmer! The basement is clean and tidy and could become a nice family room.
