Welcome to an ideally located family home and a fantastic opportunity to live in coveted Belmont in a single family 4BR home at a price comparable to some 2-family condos. Listed in “above-average” condition by the town, here the family raised seven children. There is a natural gas-hot water and heating system; a full unfinished dry basement for utilities, with work bench and ample storage space; as well as four off-street parking spaces. Located on quiet Bartlett Avenue just off Trapelo Road between Cushing Square and Waverly Square, within easy walking distance of both. Or you can simply walk 2 minutes to the Harvard Square bus from where the MBTA network of trains and busses will bring you virtually anywhere in Boston. Several highways are also short drives away. The Butler elementary school is nearby and the Pequosette playground is across the street where your children (and you) can play tennis, soccer, softball, the playpark, etc. Or simply enjoy a cookout in your backyard.
