Arlington Home of the Week: 54 Edmund Road

This charming Cape offers location, comfort and valuable updates to its new owners.

This lovely six-room Cape offers a convenient and family-friendly open floor plan, but that is only one of many beneficial characteristics that will appeal to a broad range of potential homebuyers. It has also been structurally and aesthetically updated and is sited on a prime lot on a dead-end street near many of Arlington's amenities and public transportation.

Two egresses provide entry into this home, through the attached garage and the front door which opens into an inviting fireplaced living room drenched with natural sunlight from the bay window. The renovated kitchen presents an almost rustic and incredibly welcoming setting with wood cabinets, black appliances and an exposed beam between the breakfast bar and spacious dining nook.

The second level hosts three spacious bedrooms with beautiful hardwood flooring. As mentioned earlier, this home is very family oriented which also holds true for the outdoor opportunities available in the sunny, finely manicured, fenced-in back yard which also includes a engaging patio and shed.

In addition to its comfortable and cozy features, its future owners will find this home an economical purchase with its major restorations that include refinished hardwood floors, replacement windows, a new electrical system and central air conditioning.

A significant attribute on the potential homebuyer checklist is location and this attractive property also satisfies that condition with its accessible and beautiful neighborhood, its lightly-travel dead-end street and only minutes to parks, playgrounds, public transportation and the Minuteman Bike Trail. With these standard prerequisites now fulfilled, the closing and unpacking are all that is left before new residents can put their feet up and enjoy this property and its fruitful surroundings.
