About this home

With newly refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint throughout the main level, and a new brand new three-bedroom septic system in progress, this terrific home is ready to welcome new beginnings! The main level flows beautifully creating a bright, inviting atmosphere perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features stainless appliances and gas cooking. Enjoy the change of seasons from the sunny family room overlooking a grassy, ½ acre lot, flanked by mature trees. The recently updated, finished lower-level great room encompasses nearly 500 sqft, offering its own entrance and a wood burning fireplace flanked by built-in cabinets. The existing half bath with laundry already in place offers near-immediate in-law or primary suite potential. A two-car garage with generous storage keeps everything organized and accessible. Just a mile from Town Common and Library, this Batchelder Elementary home offers year round convenience and community in the heart of North Reading.
