    Updated bathroomFully fenced yardGranite islandClose to townCommuter railOversized windowsTiled tub

    **OPEN HOUSE SATURDAY 2-4PM** Charm and ornate details abound in this stunning home ideally situated close to town, the commuter rail, and 128. Imagine being a mile from the beach and Stage Fort Park?!? That said, you might not want to leave your fully fenced yard that envelops the nearly 1/3 of acre of land that feels very private. Just outside your back door you'll find a nice rear deck overlooking your patio area ideal for summer nights as well as your 2 car detached garage with tons of extra storage space. Head inside and you will be greeted by a tastefully updated kitchen with tons of counters space and granite island. Adjacent to the kitchen you'll find the dining room and living room with oversized windows letting in tons of natural light and easily separated by original pocket doors that still work! Also on this level is a fully updated 3/4 bath. Head upstairs to find a large primary bedroom, 2 additional bedrooms, and an updated bathroom with tiled tub!
