Set on a tree-lined street in desirable West Medford, this classic two-family has been lovingly cared for and reflects pride of ownership throughout. Bay windows, hardwood floors, high ceilings, and abundant natural light highlight the home’s timeless character and architecture. Fully vacant and separately metered, the property offers flexibility for both owner-occupants and investors. Unit one features an oversized 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout with a spacious living room and a dining room. Unit two is a 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath upper-level duplex with three distinct living spaces and a private porch. Additional highlights include a driveway with parking for two cars and a beautifully landscaped backyard offering plenty of room for outdoor enjoyment or potentially more parking. Located just one block from the West Medford commuter rail station, this property provides easy access to local shops, restaurants, parks, and major commuting routes.
West Medford, located between the Mystic River and the Winchester line, is a residential and commuter-friendly Medford neighborhood with riverfront paths and a compact village center. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around High Street at Playstead Road, where corner cafés, small eateries, and everyday services cluster beside the green. The West Medford Square Farmers Market, the Chevalier Theatre, and the Royall House and Slave Quarters anchor local culture with a distinctly Medford feel. Early-20th-century Colonials and Victorians line leafy blocks, while the Mystic River corridor shapes weekend routines. The Playstead’s open field and nearby trails set a relaxed, outdoors-forward rhythm. The MBTA West Medford station ties the village center to Greater Boston.
