46 Fletcher St, Roslindale, MA 02131

This is a spacious hipped roof colonial in a family-oriented, tightly knit neighborhood walking distance to the Arnold Arboretum and Roslindale Village. Significant renovations include a new granite kitchen, an attic suite with full bath and sky lights, a new mudroom / laundry room and half bath off the kitchen, and a new office in a detached garage, which is surrounded by perennial and vegetable gardens. The front of the house has a large porch with ceiling fan, and in the back there is a patio and fenced back yard, also with perennial gardens. Inside, the first floor has an entry foyer, a good sized living room with a well-used fireplace, a large formal dining room with swinging door to butler's pantry, and a gorgeous kitchen with granite counters, a large peninsula that seats 4, and Mexican tile backsplash. A spacious landing at the bottom of the staircase is perfect as a desk or piano area; the stairs split in two directions at the bottom, adding visual interest and convenience. The second floor has a large master bedroom with an attached nursery or office sized room (that room also has a separate entrance to the main hall). There is another good-sized bedroom on the second floor, and a full bath. The third floor has a large room with a full bath and sky lights. Much of the original natural woodwork has been preserved, as have the large, single-paned windows. Ceiling fans and hardwood floors in nearly every room; we installed high-quality, sound insulating carpet in the attic suite and ceramic tile in the mudroom. Plenty of basement storage.
