    Central vacuumWater filtration systemCentral hvacSolar panelsExtensive insulationThree-season porchHeated basement
    Step inside this charming single-family home, where warmth, comfort, and convenience come together. With three spacious bedrooms, one-and-a-half bathrooms, and flexible living areas, there is plenty of room to settle in and feel at home. Thoughtful updates include central HVAC installed in 2025 and a roof replaced approximately eight years ago. Extensive insulation, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, and beautiful bay windows help create a bright and comfortable atmosphere throughout. The welcoming kitchen is ready for everyday meals and gatherings, with custom cabinetry, a skylight, granite countertops, an oversized refrigerator, a gas range with double oven, a double dishwasher, and a water filtration system. Upstairs, three bedrooms feature skylights and ceiling fans, along with access to a spacious finished and heated attic currently used for storage. A heated basement and three-season porch offer even more room to relax, work, or spend time together. Solar panels help reduce energy costs, while a central vacuum adds everyday convenience. Outdoors, the large, level, fenced yard is a wonderful setting for entertaining, gardening, play, or peaceful afternoons. The generous driveway provides ample parking, and the garage is currently used for storage. Ideally located near the beach, commuter rail, shops, restaurants, and the new Swampscott Center for the Performing Arts, the home is also about 25 minutes from Logan International Airport and offers easy access to Routes 1A and 129, Interstate 95, and Route 128.
