About this home
West Roxbury ranch on a lovely side street — 1,108 sq ft of single-floor living on a 7,005 sq ft lot. Fireplace in the living room, separate dining area, sunroom, and hardwood floors throughout. This property needs work, but the scale, layout, and location more than justify the effort. Minutes to the VFW Parkway, commuter rail, and the full depth of Boston amenities. Rarely does West Roxbury come to market at this entry point — the neighborhood, the lot, and the single-floor footprint make this well worth the investment of time and vision.
