OWNER LISTED- NO REALTOR FEE! This is a first floor recently rehabbed fully insulated 1000 square foot apartment in a lovely 3-family home. The owners live in the building and take pride in making the house a home. The owners are avid vegetable gardeners and your view out the sunny west windows is on the garden. Its a great location for commuters! You can enjoy the ease of walking to the North Quincy T (subway) station in twelve minutes and to two blocks to Wollaston beach and its walking trails in five minutes.

The home was built around nineteen twenty so the apartment has charming features of that period including wainscotting in the kitchen and bath, gleaming hardwood floors, high ceilings, and a built in hutch in the living room. The apartment has an east west orientation so it is sunny all day and gets a natural sea breeze when you open the windows. In the morning the sun comes in the huge windows on the east and in the afternoon on the west. In the basement there are coin-op laundry machines. Around the house is a fenced yard with room for your grill and a shared front and rear porch. The neighborhood is very nice with a pharmacy, post office, library and grocery within walking distance.
