Set against a natural ledge and wooded backdrop, and located directly across from Breakheart Reservation, this Colonial style home has a rustic warmth that carries from its covered wraparound porch throughout the interior. The front facing living room features a large picture window, wood burning stove, and brick accent wall with knotty pine details. Exposed ceiling beams lead into the open kitchen, where rich oak cabinets, a butcher block island, knotty pine peninsula, and a double sink bring warmth and character to the space. The formal dining room offers warmth with additional exposed beams and knotty pine details. Hardwood floors run throughout the two main living levels. The second floor features three bedrooms, a full bathroom, a large linen closet, and attic access. The finished walk out basement includes a family room with a fireplace, custom built ins, mini split temperature control, a kitchenette with a sink and knotty pine bar counter, and a full bathroom. Outside you will find a large detached front shed, smaller side shed, and off street parking for 6+ cars. This home is located close to the Greenwood MBTA Station, Bellevue Golf Club, and Route 1.
Golden Hills, located between Route 1 and Breakheart Reservation, is a residential and hillside Saugus neighborhood with winding streets and wooded edges. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Route 1 corridor near Walnut Street, where diners, independent auto shops, and long-lit signage set a classic North Shore roadside rhythm. Housing leans toward mid-century capes and ranches with tidy setbacks, plus a few newer infill homes on quieter lanes. Trailheads and reservoir views shape daily routines at the Breakheart Reservation boundary. Community touchstones include Kowloon Restaurant, the Saugus Iron Works National Historic Site, and the Square One Mall corridor for errands and casual meetups.
