About this home

Thoughtfully updated classic West Roxbury home with four bedrooms, great outdoor space, a two-car garage, and an impressive list of recent improvements. With more than 1,600 sq. ft. of living space, this home has the character you want in an older Boston home along with many of the big updates already taken care of. Step inside to beautiful hardwood floors and a warm, comfortable layout with plenty of room to spread out. The first floor offers a spacious living room with a fireplace, a dining room, a kitchen, and a bright sunroom that gives you flexible bonus space for an office, playroom, or a cozy place to relax. Upstairs are four bedrooms, giving you options for family, guests, or working from home. A walk-up attic provides additional storage and future possibilities.  Extensive updated including electrical rewiring, refinished floors, new interior doors, repairs to walls and ceilings, fresh paint throughout, added insulation and weather sealing, a newer heat pump and water heater, and a new basement bathroom. The home has also been deleaded according to Massachusetts guidelines. A newer roof, updated dormer siding, gutters and downspouts, and newer kitchen appliances add even more peace of mind.  Outside, enjoy a yard with plenty of space to garden, play, entertain, or simply relax. The detached two-car garage is a rare find in the city and provides plenty of room for parking and storage. All of this in a great location with easy access to neighborhood shops, restaurants, parks, schools, public transportation, and everything the area has to offer.
