While the Eisenhowers were in the White House when this mid-century was born, rest assured you won't find any ''Mamie pink'' bathrooms or glitter laminate countertops here. Extensively renovated, this rambler reflects the flawless execution of style and function, with an enviable layout. Tucked away on a no-thru street in Long Meadow, aka Forest Hills' twin sister. Features include 4 BR's, 2 full BA's, generous kitchen and dining area, sunroom, raised porch, and finished basement offering an additional gathering space, and loads of storage options. The generous living room runs the width of the house welcoming natural light all throughout the day, accented with a picture window overlooking the backyard. Work from home? Well, you'll be thrilled to know this home is wired with Cat 6 internet cable. And when your work day comes to a close, you'll love the neighborhood footpath giving you EZ access to your culinary neighbors: Nana's, Thai Cafe, Wine Authorities, Foster's and the soon to reopen Parker & Otis.
