This 3 BR, 2.5 BA home, located solidly in uber-fun Canton, has over 2400ft.² of space and is filled with character! From the original wood floors to the exposed brick to the super cool spiral staircases to the private backyard, this is a lively and wonderful place to call home. The primary bedroom is spacious, and features two decorative fireplaces and ample closet space. The second upper level bedroom suite is huge and could be a terrific guest area with its half bathroom and large bonus hangout area. It could also be ideal for a roommate scenario, with ample space for an easy second living room and ample furniture placement, as well as the potential for a deck area off of this space. The basement bedroom is served by a full bathroom with a walk-in shower, another fantastic guest or roommate space. Check out the fully fenced patio, ideal for quiet dinners! Close (but not too close) to bars and restaurants, this home is about five minutes away from The Can Company and all of the wonderful establishments on Boston Street.
