An inviting wrap-around porch welcomes you to this turn of the century colonial with old world charm inside and out. Enter into the spacious foyer with french doors to the front parlor which contains a fireplace and multiple windows. A sunlight dining room has a second fireplace, three large windows, and a half bath with laundry. The eat-in kitchen and adjoining pantry have an abundance of custom cabinets. The second level has four good size bedrooms and a full bath. The upper level has great flex space with a spacious bedroom, 3/4 bath, a bonus room with exterior access, and a small kitchenette. A grand staircase, wood floors and energy efficient windows are just a few of this home's many great features. Enjoy afternoon tea on the spacious front porch, the enclosed back porch or the deck overlooking the level back yard. Located in a tree-lined, wonderful neighborhood close to restaurants, coffee shops, MBTA bus routes and 1.6 miles to Alewife station via the bike path. A true gem!
