An in-ground pool, a private fenced yard, and a Craftsman bungalow that looks like nothing else on the street. Behind the full-width screened porch and second-story balcony, this [1920s] home has been taken top to bottom: brand-new kitchen, new roof, new windows, and fresh paint inside and out. Four bedrooms flex to fit — three true bedrooms plus a smaller fourth ideal as a home office or nursery. Original bungalow character stays intact: deep eaves, generous porch, honest proportions. Outside is where it separates from the comps — the pool and patio make the yard a summer destination rather than an afterthought, fully fenced for privacy. Off-street parking for several cars, minutes to the Middlesex Fells trails, I-93, Route 128, and the commuter rail into Boston. Turn-key, distinctive, and impossible to replicate — the pool alone puts this in its own category in the neighborhood.
