Welcome to a beautiful, recently renovated single-family home offering the perfect blend of modern updates, inviting living spaces, and classic New England charm in Fairmount Hill. Completely renovated in 2020, this thoughtfully updated home features 3 spacious bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a flexible home office, and a bright, open-concept layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. At the heart of the home is a stylish, updated kitchen that opens seamlessly to the dining and living areas, creating a warm and connected space filled with natural light. The thoughtful floor plan offers plenty of room to gather while still providing dedicated spaces for work and relaxation. Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable retreats, including a sunlit primary suite with a large walk-in closet. A brand-new furnace adds another significant recent improvement and peace of mind for years to come. The outdoor spaces are equally impressive. A charming wrap-around porch creates a welcoming first impression and a wonderful spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day. The fully fenced yard and patio offer a private setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, gardening, play, or summer barbecues—an extension of the home’s living space during the warmer months. Short distance to Fairmount Commuter Rail, easy access to I-95 & Blue Hills, and proximity to Cleary Square.
