Tucked on a quiet side street just moments from Maudslay’s trails and gardens, this 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home was thoughtfully expanded by its owners just four years ago to fit the way you really live. Their addition delivers a mudroom with custom built-ins for coats, boots and beach bags, a walk-in pantry with custom shelving, and a private home office with its own closet, ideal for working from home or easily used as a fourth bedroom. The family room is the natural gathering spot, with a slider opening to the paver patio, with plenty of room for the grill and a table for long dinners outside. Beyond it, the fully fenced backyard is the sellers’ favorite part of the home, made for gardening, play, and letting the dog roam. From the family room, step into the charming kitchen with quartz counters, stainless appliances and plenty of cabinet space, then into the dining room, anchored by a fireplace and ready for holiday gatherings. Down the hall, the updated full bath boasts a subway-tiled shower and a built-in storage nook. All three bedrooms feature custom closet systems for comfort and organization. The lower level adds a finished half bath, laundry, and generous storage, with room to expand if you want more living space. Comfort comes easy year-round with central air and mini splits, hardwood floors throughout and luxury vinyl in the addition, plus owned solar panels that keep utility costs low. A large shed keeps the bikes, kayaks and garden tools organized. Spend Saturday morning on the trails at Maudslay, the afternoon wandering State Street, and the evening right back where it all started, gathered with friends on the patio in the backyard.
