About this home
SUNNY second floor CORNER UNIT in a well-managed building. The kitchen updates are just over a year old with GRANITE counters and S/S appliances. Stacked washer & dryer to remain, abundant closet space in both bedrooms plus extra storage cubby in hallway. Ample visitor parking spaces. This location is SO CONVENIENT - less than a block from Shaw's Supermarket and a mere 1/2 mile to Main Street's numerous restaurants, spas and shops. The COMMUTER RAIL to N.Station and Lake Quannapowitt are each less than a mile away. A 3.2 mile path around the lake is a favorite, and Community Boating offers sailing lessons for all. Easy access to Rt.128/95 and Rt.1, plus several downtown festivals and lakeside events throughout the year make Wakefield an enjoyable town to call home.
