An exceptional setting: at the end of a cul-de-sac in a sought-after Maynard neighborhood, this home sits on 0.52 acres directly abutting conservation land. Enjoy the connection of an established neighborhood with the peaceful woodland backdrop that makes 47 Durant Avenue special. This three-bedroom, two-full-bath raised ranch offers approximately 1,100 square feet of finished living area, an updated kitchen, and a living room with a fireplace and vaulted ceiling. The dining room opens to a Trex deck-a welcoming spot to relax and enjoy the natural surroundings. All-new hardwood flooring on the upper level and fresh interior paint throughout complement the home's thoughtful updates. Roof and gutters replaced within the past 12 months, upgraded 200-amp electrical service, high-velocity central air conditioning, and a garage add practical value. The BONUS is the unfinished, full-daylight, walk-out lower level, which already includes a nearly new full bathroom-one of the home's two full baths-and offers the potential to finish more than 800 additional square feet within the existing footprint. A special opportunity to enjoy an exceptional location today, with flexibility to create additional living space for the future.
