About This Home

As of February 2014

It's where it seems EVERYBODY wants to be...the "perfect location!" A moments walk to The Commuter Rail and Readings "hip" downtown in one direction, and a moments walk to The JOSHUA EATON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL in the other! Sitting on a pretty corner lot, this charming and spacious cape with full dormer is just what you have been seeking. A comfortable, and well maintained family home, you will appreciate the lovely wood floors, living room with pretty fireplace and built-ins, dining room with a wall of built-ins, the wonderful family room area off the back with sharp tiled floor and sliders to a nice deck and awesome fenced in yard. Choose either 4 large bedrooms (2 up, 2 down) or have a home office. There is a full bath on each floor, allowing you to have many living options! The basement is finished and complete with a second fireplace and lots of space for all the toys and games! The "cherry on top" for this home is the large TWO CAR DETACHED GARAGE! Don't delay on this one!
