Listing broker remarks

Delighted to offer a very charming smaller home in a great neighborhood located near the Common and the Mount Hood recreation area. The home offers five rooms on the first floor but also has a stairway to the unfinished second floor for future expansion. Livingroom and dining room are warm inviting rooms with natural gumwood woodwork, fireplace in the livingroom, crown moldings, wainscoting, tray ceiling and build in china cabinet in the diningroom. Two bedrooms and a full bath complete the first floor. New heat and hot water were installed in 2014. Infra red testing found that there is insulation in the walls. Children can walk to the Winthrop Elementary School around the corner on First Street. Route 1 is a short distance away to Boston, Logan Airport and points north.— Brad Hutchinson Real Estate
