Only steps from Main Street, this classic three-bedroom Cape offers timeless charm, solid construction, and a location that puts everyday conveniences close at hand. Restaurants and cafés along Main Street are just 0.3 miles away, with shops, parks, and the Charles River Greenway all within easy reach. Inside, fresh off-white paint in several rooms provides a refreshed look, paired with hardwood floors throughout much of the home. The layout offers two bedrooms upstairs and one bedroom or home office on the main level. The living room features a fireplace, and the dining room opens to the kitchen, providing an excellent opportunity for future renovation. The lower level includes a partially finished room with a second fireplace, perfect for an additional living room or home office, along with ample unfinished space for storage. The home has an attached garage, Andersen windows, and a whole-house fan. Potential & convenience
