Some homes just need to be seen in person—and 70 Fairmount Street is one of them! This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home is truly move-in ready and has been lovingly cared for inside and out. The inviting layout offers comfortable living space, while the beautifully kept yard gives you plenty of room to relax, entertain, or enjoy time outdoors.Located just minutes from Buttonwood Park and convenient to highways, shopping, restaurants, and everyday amenities, you’ll love having so much close by while still feeling at home in an established neighborhood.Even better, many of the big-ticket improvements have already been taken care of, including a newer roof with a transferable 50-year warranty, replacement of all but one window, a radon mitigation system, French drains, and water-vapor wall insulation.The photos simply don’t do this home justice. If you’ve been scrolling past it online, come see it in person—you may be surprised by just how much this home has to offer!
