Your very own private retreat on a half acre lot, this two-level ranch offers a rare opportunity in a sought-after neighborhood. Three spacious living areas across two levels provide exceptional flexibility. The main level features a front to back living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a charming kitchen, a screened-in porch and an open concept family/dining room with a cathedral ceiling and a dramatic wall of windows overlooking natural views. The main bedroom and full bath are off the front hall, while a second bedroom off the family room offers exterior access, doubling as a home office or as part of a future primary suite. The bright walk-out lower level includes a sink, refrigerator and simple bar—ideal as an art studio or for hosting move night in the adjacent recreation room with its homey wood paneling and a second wood-burning fireplace. A full bath adds convenience for guests. Walkable to schools, the home offers an easy commute into Boston/Cambridge and nearby Route 95!
