About this home

Rare side by side 2-family with 10 rooms, 5 bedrooms, 3 baths and separate driveways for each unit. A large farmer's porch and lovely gardens create great curb appeal. Unit 55 was gut renovated in 2014 creating an inviting open floor plan and chef's kitchen with quartz countertops and island. At the same time the 3rd floor was expanded and finished to create a primary bedroom with a high-end ensuite bathroom and private office. There is also a partially finished lower level providing additional living space. Unit 53 is lead-compliant and has a large eat-in kitchen, direct access to the backyard and 2 bedrooms. Each unit has its own newer gas heating and central air system. The home has abundant storage and a third water meter for irrigation. This unique home offers a great opportunity for owner occupants or investors alike. The location is tough to beat-- only a few blocks to Belmont Center, the train & Town Field. The award-winning Belmont schools are all within a mile.
