About This Home

As of August 2021

Welcome to 174 Chester St, just a stones throw from the Holden town line, in one of Worcester’s most desirable neighborhoods, a little slice of heaven with a city zip code! Perfect commuter location without all the hustle and bustle, this adorable cape is just beaming with a homey feel from the second you walk through the front door into the living room. An open concept kitchen and dining room combo allow for entertaining and superb functionality. Hardwood floors shine throughout with natural light coming from the ample windows and slider which leads to a beautiful deck over looking the most perfect yard and well kept gardens-a true oasis. First floor master, second bedroom and full bath allow for flexible living options. Head upstairs to the third bedroom plus bonus room currently used as a bedroom but would also make an excellent home office or playroom. Walk-out basement is unfinished with the exception of the kids play space complete with rock climbing and cushioned flooring!
