Upstairs you will find a cute hallway nook for a quiet reading place, two very spacious bedrooms, both with fireplaces, the beautifully updated bathroom with an extra large shower, and the stackable laundry closet. Unlike a lot of older homes there is nice closet space in this one and a full basement for all your extras. As an extra bonus, there is a community vegetable garden in the Leamy House complex!The location is exceptional; walk to the shops, restaurants and activities in Chestnut hill; the train is just a block away and you are close to Fairmount Park trails.
