About this home

Welcome home to 287 Walnut Ave, located in the historic Emerald Necklace section of Roxbury! This magnificent attached Victorian renovation is ready to move in and enjoy! Once inside you are greeted by a spacious and open concept 1st floor that lends itself perfectly to entertaining. 10 ft ceilings and large windows add to your sense of space, as the original inlaid flooring combined with a blend of modern amenities and period detail enhance the experience. A stunningly designed Chef's kitchen lies within for its future owner. Three large 2nd level bedrooms assure restful sleep at the end of the day. And a spectacular 3rd level master en suite with a walk in closet/dressing room featuring an amazing private bath with bench seating shower stall and soaking tub. Minutes from Franklin Park, JP, Jackson Sq, Longwood Medical and the Fenway make this an incredible opportunity. A Commuter’s dream! So come and take a peak, you’ll be glad you did!
