A rare opportunity to own a 5 bedroom with 3 full baths single family home in Roxborough! Welcome to one of the largest homes on the block, where timeless midcentury character meets modern comfort and style. Thoughtfully renovated in 2019 plus almost 600 sq ft added with a two story addition, this home offers spacious living and exceptional outdoor amenities, including a fully renovated saltwater swimming pool and energy-efficient solar panels. See seller's disclosure for detailed breakdown of the full renovation. Inside, you’ll find a warm and inviting blend of clean modern finishes and timeless original elements. Main floor split level includes two bedrooms, a full bath, laundry room with a second refrigerator, family room/flex space with a fireplace, and open concept kitchen/dining/living room.

Then, step outside to your private backyard retreat featuring a fully renovated, low maintenance heated in-ground saltwater pool — perfect for relaxing summers, entertaining guests, or extending pool season well into the cooler months. Every aspect of the pool was fully renovated - equipment was replaced in 2019, luxury Pebbletec installed in 2020, and coping, tiles, skimmer, and patio concrete replaced in 2024. The garage includes a 40amp EV charger, with an additional 4 parking spots in the driveway. Save approximately $3000 per year with solar panels.
