About This Home
As of May 2012This 1920's Stone and Cedar Shake Colonial has been beautifully updated without losing its charm-filled elegance. With a classic, turn-of-the-century look and a delightfully deep front and back yard, this house is truly a home! The sunny, new kitchen as granite counters, a farmhouse sink, tumbled tile backsplash and stainless steel GE Profile appliances, with a great view of the backyard. The dining room features a large window with refinished hardwood floors that flow throughout the house at the living room with a stone, wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookshelves. The second floor has a typical 4-square layout with 4 spacious Bedrooms. It is completely finished with carpeting, recessed lighting, skylights and eave storage. With a fenced backyard and only blocks away from the college, town and schools, this home has it all! Landscaping, slate patio and a 2-car garage complete this home.
