About this home

"HOME SWEET HOME!" Close to the Belmont and Lexington lines sits this adorable, meticulous 3 Bed Ranch nestled back from Trapelo Road. Offering plenty of living space across 2 levels, there is a bedroom and living room for everyone! The kitchen opens beautifully to the dining/living area and the lovely screened in deck, looking right over your large level, private yard.

Downstairs you will find some great entertainment space, with a built in wet bar connected to a large living room, and 2 additional finished rooms that can be used however suits your needs- office, playroom, exercise room, you name it! With all the amenities you could desire right around the corner, this home offers a fantastic and convenient, upbeat lifestyle! Not to mention super easy access to highways and public transportation, this is not to be missed!
