Pride of ownership shines throughout this beautifully updated, owner-occupied two-family home! Situated on a desirable corner lot with a fenced yard and detached 2-car garage, this property offers an excellent opportunity for both owner-occupants and investors. Each unit features 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, spacious living and dining rooms, and separate laundry areas. The first-floor unit offers central air, hardwood flooring throughout most of the home, and a stunning kitchen remodeled in 2019 with granite countertops, upgraded cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and tile flooring extending into the hallway and bath. The full bath was renovated in 2021. A versatile bonus room off the dining area provides the perfect space for a home office, playroom, or den. The second-floor unit underwent a complete renovation to the studs in 2025, including all new windows, insulation, plumbing, an insulated rear door, and energy-efficient mini-split systems for heating and cooling in every room. Additional improvements include two new hot water heaters (2025), a first-floor gas furnace (2011), an Ecobee smart thermostat installed through Mass Save, vinyl siding, and vinyl replacement windows. Ideally located just off Grafton Street with convenient access to the Mass Pike, Routes 290 and 146, as well as shopping, restaurants, and everyday amenities. This move-in-ready multi-family offers the perfect combination of modern updates, functionality, and a prime commuter location.
