Ease of life is one way to describe the style of living this lovely home located in the Olmstead District of Swampscott brings. All on one floor are 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, the open concept living room, dining room, and kitchen, and the 1-car garage. There is a finished playroom/workout room in the basement with outside access and a pull-down attic for extra storage. Outside you’ll find a fully fenced-in yard with a new swing-set and a beautiful patio. Some additional new features include a new furnace (2014), new hot water heater (2016), and a new dryer. Hardwood floors throughout, a fire-placed living room, and a skylight that lets in more natural light add to the charm and character of the home. King's and Phillips Beaches are not far. You’ll love to come home from the beach and rinse off in the private outdoor shower behind the house and when you add to that the train, shopping, and schools that are close by, you really need look no further than this splendid home.
