About This Home
As of September 2022This refreshing two-story colonial occupies a spacious lot in Somerville and is just a short distance to downtown. The property was built in 1999 with renovations as recent as last year, embracing a modern concept seen throughout the home. Among the delights is a new water heater (2021), chic hardwood and tile flooring, and a partially finished basement. Enter through the foyer and the space opens out into the light-filled family room, which is the central hub of this turnkey property. Also on the first floor is a fully equipped eat-in kitchen with granite surfaces and professional-grade appliances including a new 5-burner gas oven/stove. Other notable features in the kitchen and dining area include ceramic tile flooring and freshly painted cabinets. A convenient powder room and laundry space complete the main level. Move upstairs to find each of the 4 bedrooms has been outfitted with hardwood laminate flooring and roomy closets. The primary suite is a homeowner?s dream sanctuary, with recessed lighting and a tray ceiling providing a lavish design aesthetic. With updates from 2020, the stunning master bathroom has an oversized shower with multi-shower heads and a bench, and custom vanity and cabinetry. Gravitate towards the rear of the house and enjoy the serene and well-kept backyard. An opportunity to reside in this picturesque home is tempting indeed!
