About this home

Welcome to 81 Prentice Street—a beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath home that blends timeless charm with modern updates. Located in the sought-after Highlands neighborhood, it’s just 0.2 miles from the Wayside Trail, 0.3 miles from Prospect Hill Park, and 0.5 miles from Leary Field. (now a renovated state of the art track) Inside, enjoy gleaming hardwood floors, central A/C (2019), a new boiler (2023), and an electrical upgrade (2024). Other improvements include a woodstove insert with blower (2020), seven new windows (2022), a rebuilt chimney (2022), and a newly installed French drain (2024). Off the dining room, a three-season screened porch offers a peaceful retreat, while the kitchen opens to a sunny deck, perfect for morning coffee. Ample parking includes a paved driveway for two cars plus garage access for another. Mature shrubbery and perennial gardens surround the property. They provide shade, privacy and nectar for the pollinators. Move-in ready pride of ownership
