About this home

Just six houses from the entrance to the Arnold Arboretum, on one of Roslindale's most sought-after streets, this Craftsman gem offers something increasingly hard to find in Boston: space, nature, and neighborhood all at once. Stained glass, original arched doorways, and built-ins give the interior a warmth that deepens the longer you're in it. Multiple window seats frame the showstopping yard, where a large deck, a patio, and a sweeping lawn create an outdoor living experience that few city homes can match. And the surrounding trees make every season worth staying home for. The kitchen connects to it all seamlessly, making the transition from inside to outside effortless. A sunroom, formal dining room, partially finished basement, and 1.5 baths round out this thoughtfully preserved home with a large walk-up attic offering room to grow. Roslindale Village, Fallon Field, Peters Hill, and the commuter rail are all within reach.
