About this home

Tucked at the end of a dead-end street near the Hyde Park line, this 1950s ranch delivers solid mid-century character and immediate move-in readiness. Natural light pours into the living room, highlighting original hardwood floors and a classic wood-burning fireplace built for Boston winters. The seamless layout flows into a kitchen updated with granite counters and stainless steel appliances. Featuring 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, the home boasts a massive main-floor sunroom with a direct staircase leading to the lower level. The finished lower level completely doubles your living options, offering a huge recreation room and a dedicated home office. Bypassing the winter chill is easy with direct interior access straight from the attached garage into the basement. Commuting is effortless with two private driveways and quick access to the Fairmount Commuter Rail and Mattapan Trolley. This is your chance to own a piece of Boston.
