Listing broker remarks

Robbins Farm, Menotomy Rocks Park, and Mass Ave all sit within easy reach, giving you a part of Arlington where the outdoors and the activity of town can both be part of the same day. Cared for by the same owners for more than 50 years, this is a home with a long history of thoughtful upkeep and everyday use. Inside, the first floor is comfortable and straightforward. The living room centers around a fireplace, and the dining room opens through sliding doors to a deck overlooking the private backyard. Mature landscaping gives the yard an established feel, making the deck an appealing spot for dinner outside, morning coffee, or a quiet end to the day. The updated kitchen adds useful storage with a large pantry that keeps everyday items from crowding the counters. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a full bath, keeping the sleeping areas together and separate from the main living floor. Downstairs, the basement provides laundry along with plenty of storage for bikes, seasonal gear, tools, and everything else that tends to follow you home. Set in the Brackett School neighborhood, this is a house that has been well cared for over time and makes it easy to enjoy both the tranquil and more active sides of Arlington without having to choose between them.— Gibson Sotheby's International Realty
