Welcome to this 3 bed 1.5 bath expanded & updated classic colonial home located on a large (fenced) corner lot across from Forest Elementary school & just minutes to downtown & the Assabet Rail Trail. This home has both function and charm! Large open concept eat-in kitchen with stainless appliances and modern cabinetry. Large tiled 4 season breezeway/mudroom connector leading to the great room where one can enjoy relaxing and/or entertaining while embracing the warmth of a pellet stove. This room's stairwell leads to a large unfinished (25 x 21) space above that could be finished & yield an additional 525 sq ft of space. Hardwood floors, trim and bannister to the 2nd floor with their deep walnut stain, emit a charming warmth. There is a gorgeous stone farmer's porch on front & a new 50 ft long wood deck across the back of the home overlooking the large flat fenced yard for barbecues & entertaining or enjoying peaceful summer nights for stargazing. Showings begin at first open house...
