About This Home
As of September 2021Tired of the long dreadful commute into town? Make 85 Preston your new home and spend more time relaxing at home rather than on the road. This recently updated 3 bed 2 bath Cape is located just minutes from major highways and a short distance to the Commuter Rail. Enjoy the outdoors at the nearby Lake Quannapowitt and Breakheart Reservation, or step out into your own backyard with a wooded double lot to prune your garden. Gather in your open concept dining and kitchen area with granite countertop, pantry, and 2019 appliances. Bonus room with a closet on the first level being used as an office, laundry on the second level, one car garage, plenty of storage space, and hardwood floors throughout. Both bedrooms upstairs were expanded in 2019 with a custom-built closet added to the main bedroom. Converted to gas with central air and installed a new water heater in 2020.
