Striking 4 bed colonial nestled on a dead end street in one of Boston’s most desirable neighborhoods. The area has so much to offer: walking distance to Harvard’s famed Arnold Arboretum, a bustling Roslindale Village, commuter options, restaurants, & more. Modern updates such as central air, vinyl siding, and young systems mix with historical charm of high ceilings, time period mouldings, ornamental fireplace, etc. Oversized mudroom welcomes you to a 1st floor circular flow of kitchen, dining and living rooms, ½ bath, 1st floor laundry and a versatile bonus room (home office, family or play room). 2nd level offers 4 bedrooms, full bath with steam shower+jacuzzi tub, and walk in closet. Winding staircase continues up to a finished 3rd level of flex space (or potential 5th bedroom). The hallway off the kitchen will lead you outside to a perfect for entertaining backyard including walkout composite deck, large patio area and an above ground pool. Win-Win combo for house & location!
