Live where every day feels like a getaway. Set just one house from the water in highly sought-after Squantum, this extensively updated home pairs stunning views and fresh ocean breezes with a quick commute to downtown Boston. Four levels of living space and generous closets throughout give everyone room to spread out. The hard work is done: a new roof (2025), new water heater (2025), new front windows, new exterior doors, new hardwood floors across the first floor, and fresh interior paint throughout. The kitchen boasts a new Miele dishwasher (2025), and a new washer and dryer (2025). The primary suite stands out, with incredible views, an en suite bath, and a walk-in closet. Gather by one of two working fireplaces on winter nights, while updated HVAC with new condensers and three ductless mini-splits (2026) keep you comfortable in every season. A separate lower-level apartment with a brand-new kitchen and bathroom offers flexible space for guests, long visits, or a home office. Outside, new fencing frames the yard. Not in a FEMA flood zone, so no flood insurance is required. You get the coastal lifestyle without the coastal premium. Close to beaches, the yacht club, and the Red Line, this is a coastal retreat just minutes from the city. Opportunities like this rarely come to market. A must see!
