Listing broker remarks

Nestled in one of Scituate's most sought-after neighborhoods, this 4-bedroom Colonial offers exceptional space, versatility, and a prime location close to schools, beaches, Scituate Harbor, shopping, restaurants, and the commuter rail. Set on a beautifully landscaped half-acre lot, the home features a spacious floor plan with a fireplace, sunroom, finished lower level perfect for watching the game or hanging out with friends, and a rear deck overlooking the private yard. A fully equipped accessory dwelling unit with its own kitchen provides flexible living options for extended family, au pair, guests, or other permitted uses. The Accessory Dwelling is one level living. The newly renovated ADU could easily be incorporated into the main home as well. Additional highlights include two storage sheds, workshop space, and abundant room for hobbies or storage. A rare opportunity to enjoy comfort, flexibility, and convenience in an outstanding Scituate location. This is the type of neighborhood where children go out to play in the morning and come back when the street lights come on in a quintessential New England cul de sac in a seaside town. This is the one you have been waiting for!— Conway - Scituate
