Property Description

A gorgeous, landscaped front garden greets you at this charming 1924 bungalow in the heart of popular Maxwell Park. While some desirable original period details remain, modern updates throughout offer ease and efficiency to your day-to-day. The spacious living room's large, garden-facing, dual-paned windows welcome light, while an elegant fireplace with a built-in cabinet adds warmth on a chilly fall night. A formal dining room awaits gatherings around a large table, and an updated light fixture brings soft radiance to the room. Both spacious bedrooms have ample closet space and windows, while the retro bath keeps its charm with tile flooring and a pedestal sink. The sunny, updated eat-in kitchen is the star, with vibrant green cabinetry, a new stainless steel gas range (2026), and a matching refrigerator and dishwasher. A laundry area with washer and dryer hookups leads out to a deck, perfect for morning coffee or pumpkin carving, then steps down to a large, shady yard with a brick and concrete patio. Outside is a gardener's paradise. The owners planted mainly natives and have loved watching what thrives. Come spring, it all bursts into bloom; peaches, passionfruit, and persimmons are bountiful each year, with Meyer lemon, blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries adding weeks of noshing. A young pear tree on the side already delivers a few tasty fruits each summer. A basement and detached garage add plenty of extra space for storage. Close proximity to 580 and 13 offers convenience when commuting, while the surrounding neighborhoods, only minutes away, offer shopping, restaurants, and good coffee. Also worth mentioning, Mills College at Northeastern, with its lovely grounds, is nearby. Don't miss this peaceful and bountiful retreat!
