Charming 4-Bed, 2.5-Bath Colonial on Scenic Ash Street Steps from the Boston Marathon Start Line 2,204 Sq. Ft. | 4 Bedrooms | 2 Full & 1 Half Baths | 2-Car Garage + 6 Driveway Spaces Property Overview Tucked deep into a private, tree-lined lot on Ash Street one of Hopkinton's designated scenic roads, lined with historic stone walls and famously home to the start line of the Boston Marathon this 2,204 sq. ft. single-family home offers a rare blend of quiet, established charm and modern efficiency. Built in 1998, the home has been thoughtfully maintained and recently updated. Interior First Floor A warm family room centered on a wood-burning fireplace (fully overhauled, along with the chimney) flows into a formal dining room and a comfortable living room. The kitchen features an island seating four, quartz countertops, cabinetry refinished in white in 2023, a full appliance suite (refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, electric range, and conventional oven), and a sunlit breakfast nook framed by French doors. A mudroom with in-unit washer and dryer, plus a convenient half bath, round out the main level. Second Floor Four bedrooms and two full baths, including a private en-suite off the main bedroom. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, with the family room, all bedrooms, and the finished portion of the basement finished in carpet for added comfort. Lower Level A partially finished basement, whose square footage is not included in the advertised size, offers generous storage plus flexible bonus space that's quietly worn many hats over the years - home office, art studio, dance studio, game room, and home theater among them ready for whoever moves in to make it their own. Efficiency & Recent Updates Brand-new two-zone heat pump heating and cooling, a heat pump water heater, and rooftop solar panels deliver genuine, worry-free energy savings tenants benefit from 100% of the solar generation, keeping electric costs nominal for everyday household use and near $0 for households without an electric vehicle. A centrally located EV charger serves the attached two-car garage, which is complemented by six additional driveway spaces.
