Listing broker remarks

Simply lovely describes this sunny, freshly painted home with high ceilings and multiple windows with tree views and gleaming hardwood floors. As you approach the front yard, an abundance of perennial flowers and a maple tree greet you. The spacious living room offers period wood detail, a wood-burning fireplace, built-in bookcases, and coffered ceilings. Off the living room is a sunroom and an adjacent dining room complete with china cabinet and wood panel wainscoting. The efficient kitchen has a newer cooktop and electric convection oven. There is a half bath off the kitchen. On the second floor, you will find a large primary bedroom with an adjacent space to be used as a home office or creative space. The second bedroom overlooks the large backyard. The third bedroom could be a separate nursery or guest room. The exterior was painted approximately 12 years ago, adding to the home’s well-maintained appeal. Set in Boston’s vibrant Roslindale, the home puts you close to Stony Brook, the Arnold Arboretum, local restaurants, coffee shops, and the commuter rail. This charming home offers both character and flexibility in a wonderfully connected Boston location.— Gibson Sotheby's International Realty
