About This Home
Experience the best of coastal living just seven miles from Boston in the highly coveted Squantum neighborhood. This brick-front colonial offers a rare combination of modern flexibility and classic coastal charm, perfectly suited for a growing family or those seeking a versatile layout. While currently configured with a private suite, this home is designed for seamless conversion into a sprawling 3+ bedroom, 2-bath single-family home. The "in-law" wing transitions perfectly into a massive first-floor primary suite or a sophisticated guest wing. The additional galley kitchen is ideal as a secondary "prep kitchen" or wet bar for hosting large gatherings on the expansive rear deck. Two distinct fireplace-warmed living rooms provide separate zones for a formal living room and a relaxed family den, both featuring large picture windows with views of the lush grounds. The upper level features two large bedrooms with views of Boston Harbor, plus a flexible third room ideal for a home office.
