About This Home
As of May 2013Perched high above the sound of the street this antique colonial is full of surprises. Delight in the cool breeze on the farmers porch or step through the arbor into a vacation paradise. Brick patio and heated built in pool await. Beyond the pool lies a wooded area, basketball court and plenty of parking. There is direct acces to the rear of the house off Edmund Road so no need to climb stairs. Alewife Station bus just across the street. Minutes to bike path, schools and major routes.
