Listing broker remarks

Tucked on a quiet side street just north of Main Street, this circa-1853 antique pairs the character of a classic Winchester home with the space of a beautiful, sun-filled addition (completed in 2003): A lovely farmer's porch welcomes you and, once inside, hardwood and tile floors run through the main living spaces. Front rooms include a quaint sitting room and private office. A gas fireplace adds warmth in the family room off the kitchen, which has a slider out to a generous sized deck overlooking the serene back yard. Fresh paint throughout means there is nothing to do but move in. The same addition brought two bedrooms (primary with en suite bath), a walk-in closet, and updated kitchen cabinetry. Out back, a wood deck steps down to a spacious fenced yard with a built-in tree house, a garden area, storage shed, and in-ground sprinkler system. Central air conditioning, gas heat, town water and sewer, a one-year-old hot water tank, a partially finished, heated basement, a walk-up attic, and a four-car driveway. The location is the real headline: walk to the commuter rail, the bus, and Winchester Center's shops and restaurants, with the park, bikeway, and conservation trails minutes away. Newly renovated Lynch Elementary, McCall Middle and Winchester High School.— Keller Williams Realty Boston Northwest
