    What's special

    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. The main level has great flow with a fire-placed living room, formal dining, a clean and open kitchen with bar seating, plus a bonus sun room with windows on three sides. 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. In the Countryside / Brown / Newton South school district with time to close before the new year starts. One or more photos was virtually staged.
