Offering nearly 2,000 sq ft of living space on a dead-end street, this Braintree split-entry combines a flexible interior with an outdoor setup made for enjoying the warmer months. Hardwood floors carry through the main living and dining areas, while the kitchen features an island, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking and recessed lighting. A slider extends the dining space outdoors, where a multi level deck creates multiple areas for dining, entertaining or relaxing. Three bedrooms and a full tiled bath complete the main level with pull down attic for extra storage. Downstairs, the finished walkout level adds valuable versatility with a generous family room featuring a second full bath and direct garage access. Outside, the fenced yard offers plenty of usable space along with a garden area and two storage sheds. An attached 2-car garage and expansive paved driveway add to the appeal. Close to Braintree Station, South Shore Plaza, Sunset Lake, Pond Meadow Park and major highway connections, this home brings together space and outdoor living in a desirable Braintree neighborhood. Plus the roof, furnace, water heater, ac and driveway are all less than 7 years old!
