About This Home
As of June 2022This wonderful Garrison colonial has been owned by the same family since they had it built in the 40's. Well maintained and freshly painted, offering 3 -4 bedrooms, hardwood floors, two fireplaces and a beautiful fenced in yard with a deck. Formal diningroom, fireplaced livingroom and a lower level fireplaced playroom/ familyroom. If this wasn't enough, the home also offers a full in-law/ au pair suite above the garage! It features it's own private entrance, and a modern kitchen, bathrroom, livingroom and bedroom. This bonus space was not an afterthought addition, but was built for the original owner's parents when the house was constructed. Convenient to Green Line, Commuter Rail, Bus and major highways. Come and see at Open Houses Saturday and Sunday 11:30-1:00 or by appointment. Offers due Tuesday April 12th
