Listing broker remarks

A great home with the opportunity to add instant equity through your own stylish updates! Set at the end of a wooded cul-de-sac in Parkway Farms, this well-laid-out 4-bedroom home borders Breakheart Reservation, minutes from Boston and Logan Airport. Large windows draw in daylight, with treetop views from several vantage points. A pellet-stove-warmed family room, large kitchen with breakfast nook, and classic wainscoting, crown molding, and 9-foot ceilings give the home real character. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and full bath, while three bedrooms share a large full hall bath. Outside, the patio is perfect for barbecues and gatherings. Set on 1.29 acres, including a fenced garden, the grounds feel more like a country escape than a city so close to Boston. Simply update the tile flooring for a quick style refresh, or finish the framed lower level with a fireplace and private entrance for another 1,000+ square feet of living space. Available for sale or rent for $4,000/month. This won't last long.— Gibson Sotheby's International Realty
