Arts & Crafts cottage affords that much sought after one floor living. Custom oak woodwork, hardwood floors, central air and gas heat are just a few of the many improvements. The attractive, updated kitchen is appointed with hickory wood cabinets, custom hardware, handmade tiles, copper apron sink, Viking range and granite counters, staircase to attic allows for future expansion. Lower level has game room and a separate guest bedroom and full bath. This home overlooks a large, level, private back yard with opportunity to expand or build your dream home. Tucked away on a dead end street with easy access to fields, Linden Square shops, school, library, train. This lovely neighborhood is one of Wellesley's best kept secrets.

Fantastic opportunity to enjoy, renovate or rebuild on large level lot in quiet location near town, train and 1 house away from WMS/Sprague playing fields. High ceilings, generous room sizes, surprisingly charming existing home. Must see.
