It has easy access to shops, restaurants & the commuter rail and is under a mile to the public elementary & high schools. The foyer opens to a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace. Off the living room is a great study. The foyer also opens to the entertainment-sized dining room and the updated eat-in kitchen. Behind the kitchen the first level bedroom with an en-suite full bathroom. On the second floor is a large primary bedroom with an en-suite full bathroom. There are three more bedrooms on this level and another full bathroom. Presently unfinished, the basement houses the systems and provides direct entry to the two car garage.
