226 Trapelo Road #1

A commuter’s dream, conveniently located with bus routes to Harvard Square steps away, the commuter rail station only a mile away in Waverley Square, and easy access to Routes 2 and 90. The home offers a well-designed and functional layout, thoughtfully renovated for modern style galore, yet its original charm radiates from period details including gumwood molding and trims.

The bright and cheerful formal living room welcomes you with a large triple window, crown molding, and shining hardwood floors. A wood burning fireplace creates a focal centerpiece and provides a cozy atmosphere on chilly nights.

Sunlight streams through the large picture window of the front sunroom, renovated in 2014 and offering versatility as a home office, a playroom, or simply an inviting place to relax and watch the world pass by.

French doors transition from the living room to the formal dining room, perfect for sharing specials meals and accented by another large triple window, beautiful hardwood flooring, crown molding, chair rail accents, and a built-in china cabinet to display your treasured dinnerware.

A 2014 renovation created the updated kitchen full of modern style with granite countertops, a large breakfast bar island, a tile backsplash, crown molding, hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, and pantry storage.

A door from the kitchen connects to the rear porch and backyard beyond with a mudroom in between offering built-in shelving for additional storage. Outdoor living is easy in the private, fully fenced backyard perfect for kids and pets. Escape the hustle and bustle to enjoy a peaceful retreat beneath the two flowering cherry trees bursting with color each spring. Enjoy summertime entertainment on the patio or tend to your vegetable plants in the raised garden bed.

This wonderful home offers inviting spaces to gather with family, but also provides privacy when rest or quiet times are needed. The generous bedrooms are full of natural light with shining hardwood floors and ample closet space. The bathroom, renovated in 2014, is easily accessible by both bedrooms and is beautifully updated in neutral tones with a stylish white vanity, ceramic tile floor, and a tiled tub with shower. Cordless blinds are installed throughout the home for safety and convenience.

Storage is plentiful with a deep front hall closet and an ample linen closet in the rear hallway to help keep you organized. The basement offers additional storage and the laundry area.

Move right in and enjoy a low maintenance lifestyle in a desirable neighborhood where everything you need is close by including CVS for urgent needs, grocery shopping at Star Market only a mile away, many shopping and dining options, and a soon-to-be-completed retail development in Cushing Square including Starbucks and much more. Belmont offers the perfect blend of bustling commercial centers and sprawling green conservation lands for outdoor recreational enjoyment including Pequossette Park, with a recently renovated playground, tennis courts, a soccer field, and a trail for walking or biking. The beautiful Beaver Brook Reservation is just down the road with a playground and a spray deck for summertime fun. The walking and hiking trails throughout the reservation offer a peaceful place to stroll amongst the tree-lined green space or enjoy a picnic by the brook. What a perfect place to call home.
