Nestled at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac in historic South Acton, this sunny & serene home offers the perfect blend of charm, comfort, & convenience. Lovingly cared for & thoughtfully updated by the same family for 32 years, this move-in-ready 4-bedroom home is filled w/warmth & timeless appeal. Inside, you’ll find remodeled kitchen/baths, gleaming hardwood floors, a finished basement, newer HVAC, an ultra-efficient gas boiler, & a whole-house generator. Inviting sunroom opens to a veranda overlooking picturesque Fort Pond Brook — an idyllic spot to enjoy morning coffee while listening to the gentle sounds of the babbling water. Organically maintained yard & thriving garden beds are ready to provide fresh vegetables all summer long. Surrounded by nature, the property feels like a private Vermont retreat, complete w/singing birds, a majestic 100-year-old apple tree, & a stunning mature Japanese maple that creates a rare sense of seclusion while still fostering community.
