Come see this rarely available, secluded and renovated 3-bedroom colonial, on nearly 2 acres in Ballardvale within a short walk to the commuter rail and South elementary school. The current owners have carefully maintained the charm and character of the home while fully renovating the interior, including bathrooms, kitchen and family rooms. The bright kitchen is beautifully done with white custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and farmer's sink. The open kitchen and family room offer clear views to the outside and large cedar deck overlooking the private backyard's many gardens. Other exterior features include a stone fireplace and expansive level lawn that abuts town-owned forest. Other interior features include an unfinished basement with bulkhead access and ample workspace and a walk-up attic that has been rough plumbed for future expansion. Coming in from the summer heat, you'll undoubtedly appreciate the energy efficient, European-inspired air conditioning. Don't miss this!
