Description

Located in a corner of Chestnut Hill known as West Roxbury, one block from Brookline, this roomy two bedroom home is comfortably decorated, cozy, full of light, and convenient to public transportation and shops. The kitchen has a high-top table, as well as an adjoining sunny dining room, and a half bathroom off the back hall. Two steps down from the kitchen, the large living room is a relaxing space with a fireplace, a large screen TV, leather couch with hidden recliners, as well as two free-standing stylish recliners. The attached office is surrounded by windows, with ample desk space for three people. There are thermostats on all three levels of the house which regulate the heat to keep it cozy, plus three AC units and fans to keep it cool in summer. The upstairs bedrooms are peaceful and sunny. There is a roomy master bedroom with a queen size bed, bookshelves, two dressers, and two closets. The smaller second bedroom has a twin size bed, which converts to a double bed, as well as a dresser, desk, and closet. There is a full bathroom with a tub and shower on the second floor. In the finished basement there is a small couch, exercise area with a stationary bike and workout equipment, as well as a washer/dryer in an unfinished side room. Through the French doors off the living room, an open deck with a large table, chairs, and grill looks out on a spacious tree-lined fenced backyard. There's room in the garage for one car, and the driveway has room for two more cars, as well as on-street parking. The house is located close to woods with many dog-friendly walking trails. The Arboretum and a children's playground are within walking distance, as well as a small shopping plaza with two nice restaurants, CVS, wine store, and bank. A city bus route that connects to the subway T line is two blocks away, and the commuter rail to downtown Boston is a 15 min walk. A public library, large grocery store, hospital, and many other shops are less then a mile away, and the area is leafy, green, and safe.
