About This Home

As of July 2023

Everything that makes East Arlington so desirable is just a stone’s throw from this duplex style 2-family: a half mile to Alewife, one third mile to Capitol Square, a few houses away from Hardy Elementary, and abutting the bike path. 70-72 Brooks Ave has brought joy to the same family for generations, and with your vision and upgrades this house will be ready to make new memories. Each unit has 3 rooms on the main floor, 2 bedrooms and full bath on the second floor, and a finished room on the top level. The unfinished basement is divided down the middle and there are separate utilities and laundry hook-ups. The exterior has carefree vinyl siding, and a large, sunny, and level backyard with pretty gardens. 2008 roof, both steam boilers are approx 15 years old.
