About This Home

As of August 2025

Welcome to the crown jewel of 20 Putnam Street.

The main level features open-concept living and dining anchored by a Bosch-appointed kitchen with Fisher & Paykel two-drawer dishwasher, plus two spacious bedrooms and a full guest bath. Upstairs, the entire second floor is devoted to a serene primary suite with walk-in closet, double vanity, and spa-like shower. Below, a private laundry room and versatile bonus space offer room to stretch out. Radiant heated bathroom floors, all-electric systems, one-car tandem parking, and private storage complete the offering.
