THIS HOME IS SPECIAL! Sunlight spills in at 65 Bothfeld Road! The bright and happy organic blend of Craftsman style touches with Colonial floor plan provides natural flow with spaces for everyone. Everything that today's homeowner could wish for. Set in an absolutely iconic neighborhood on an elevated lot, just a short block from Comm Ave and the famous Boston Marathon route - one can even get peeks of the participants from your own back yard and windows. The primary bedroom is spacious - featuring an ensuite bath and generous closets; two more bedrooms, a nursery (or 2nd office) and a family bath round out the 2nd floor. The lower level's family room is another spot to enjoy and the incredible amount of lower level additional space to reimagine and/or to utilize as storage space is a bonus. Freshly painted, this is an exceptional offering, a place you will feel proud to make HOME!
