About this home

Being offered for the first time, this well loved home has served her owners well. Just steps away from Shirley Station & a quick train ride to Boston, this is a commuter's paradise. The land is graced with mature trees & plantings that make for an idyllic back yard. Open concept Kitchen/Dining Room/Living Room, full bath & 3 bedrooms complete the main level. The lower level contains an additional family room, a nicely sized 4th bedroom which could be used as an alternative Master Bedroom PLUS approximately 480 sf of additional unfinished space - you get to decide how you want it finished! The roof is just about 5 years old, the heat is electric & the main level flooring is hardwood. The town's police, fire & highway departments mean a full compliment of municipal services. This historic town was settled in 1720 & incorporated in 1753. First Parish Meetinghouse was built in 1773, is lovingly preserved by a private group & hosts cultural & community events.
