1910

This classic 1910 Colonial radiates warmth from the moment you step onto the front porch, offering a sun-filled, traditional layout designed for comfortable living and easy entertaining. The main level showcases hardwood floors through the generous living and formal dining rooms, anchored by an oversized eat-in kitchen with natural wood cabinetry, gas cooking, and a walk-in pantry primed for conversion to a main-floor bath or laundry. From the dining room, sliders lead out to an expansive back deck overlooking a deep, level backyard with mature perennial plantings and a storage shed. Upstairs features high ceilings, three bright bedrooms with ample closet space, a cheerful vintage-pink tiled bath, and central air conditioning paired with forced-air heat. Additional living space awaits in the partially finished lower level, which offers electric heat, great ceiling height, dedicated laundry, and abundant storage ready for a home office, gym, or family room. Complete with parking for four-plus cars, this home is just one block from Nipper Maher Park and minutes from two commuter rail stations, Brandeis University, Boston Children's, Route 128/95, and the Mass Pike.
