About This Home

As of September 2020

Located in the Joshua Eaton School District, this home is only 13 miles from Boston, and close to Routes 128 and 93, as well as the Commuter Rail. With Sturges Park in walking distance, it’s a great spot for families and commuters! The kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, granite counters, recessed lighting, and overlooks the sunken family room that features a cathedral ceiling, lots of light, and a fireplace. The large sunroom has a wood stove, access to the one car garage, and walk out access to the fenced in yard. Also, on the first floor are the dining room, the living room, and a bonus room that could be used for an office, guest bedroom, or playroom. The partially finished basement adds additional living space, with a new oil burner installed in 2018. The second floor has three bedrooms with great closet space and a bathroom in the master bedroom. The fenced in yard features a patio right outside the sunroom, perennial gardens, and plenty of space for family and friends!
