Property Description

Solid Colonial in a prime Upper Falls location, just across from Nahanton Park, Cutler Park Reservation, and the Charles River. This well-kept home offers three real bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a functional layout that works from day one.

Upstairs, the bedrooms are all well sized with the full bath smartly located. Including a finished lower level, this home is light-filled and move-in ready. Refreshed hardwood floors throughout. Fenced yard with patio, driveway parking, and space to work, host, or relax. Quick access to the 9 and 93, shopping, and the commuter rail.
