About This Home

As of November 2024

Welcome to 12 James Street, a classic 1880s Colonial that has been renovated to blend its original character with modern allure, situated in an ideal location for a balance of privacy with easy access to Woburn Center and the highway. The main level is highlighted by a captivating, open-concept living room with hardwood floors, exposed beam and brick, gas fireplace, custom built-in shelving and French doors leading to the backyard. The spacious kitchen features granite counters, a center island and additional dining space and leads into a bonus room that makes a perfect home office. Upstairs, you will find three generously sized bedrooms, including the primary suite which was remodeled about four years ago to add a gorgeous bathroom with tiled shower and a walk-in closet. This level features another full bath which was gut-renovated within the last 10 years. Outside, your tranquil retreat awaits, from the deck that stretches along the house to the side yard with fire pit.
