Located only blocks to Glover School, this raised ranch home at 27 Columbia Road offers one floor living featuring an open living room with a wood burning fireplace, a dining area, and kitchen with a cathedral ceiling, 2 Bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths, a back deck, yard area plus a one car garage beneath. The topography of the land is unusual as the house is built into and on ledge but for an ambitious gardener intriguing rock gardens could be created! The house is in need of considerable work but a new owner could certainly recreate a charming home. The location in this neighborhood is a great advantage offering not only proximity to the Glover Elementary School but also easy access in and out of town for shopping (Vinnin Square is only a few blocks away) and also for commuting into Boston or out to Routes 114 and 128.
