This beautiful home blends timeless character with high-end, sophisticated design. From the soaring ceilings to the white-brushed wide-plank flooring throughout the home, every inch feels airy, bright, and brand new.Highlight of the home features a custom Chef’s kitchen with sleek Cafe appliances, quartz countertops, oversize island, large pantry, and more cabinet space than you'll ever need! A brand new maintenance free white picket fence completely encloses the property. This is low-maintenance living at it's best.Location is everything! You’re just moments away from the Highlands Commuter Rail, Orange Line bus, Whole Foods, and multiple shops & restaurants. Commuting and errands have never been easier!
