Read the full listing description

Welcome to Springdale and this amazing home! This home is located in a desirable neighborhood, with friendly neighbors all around. It's a very short walk to the train, but also to shops and great restaurants, and only minutes from downtown, I95, and the Merritt. The home is a beautiful 1920's colonial, with all the charm of that era. You enter a small vestibule where you can put shoes and coats, into a large living room, that opens into the dining room, and small sitting area near the open stair case. The fireplace at the center of the living room, the trim and moldings, all contribute to the beautiful style of the home. The dining room has been split by a wall, to create a separate space that has its own private entrance, a bedroom, full bath, an office, and a sunroom with cabinets, a refrigerator, and a sink. It's a great in-law apartment. The kitchen is off the dining room, with newer counters and sink, and lots of great cabinet space. This leads out to the side yard/back yard. Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms. Each bedroom has something unique--the master has a sunroom, the TV room has a another attic space, and the last bedroom has walk-up attic stairs to a large, unfinished attic with future potential. There is a shared full bath on this level. There is a large basement for storage, that also leads to the large, fenced back yard. I understate this yard, with beautiful plantings, and lots of space for all your entertaining needs. Come see this one quickly!
