Other features: "Video at www.51Brookings.com - You'll instantly feel at home in this lovely Colonial spread out on 3 floors. Bay windows in the living room and dining room are a great place to curl up with a good book. Plentiful cabinets line the walls of the kitchen. How will you use the 3 rooms on the 3rd floor? Do you need more bedrooms or an office, den or family room? The front room gets great morning sun. WalkScore of 72. You'll be steps away from buses to Davis Square and the Orange line so you can leave your car at home. Tufts is 1/2 a mile away as well as the restaurants in Medford Square. Minimal yard space means you don't have to spend your time weeding and mowing. Enjoy the green space of Barry Park around the corner (tennis & basketball courts too). Porches rebuilt in 2006. The covered front porch is a great place to sit out of the heat of the sun as you enjoy the sweet scent of the lilac tree in the spring. The uncovered 2nd floor porch gives you plenty of room for container gardening or relaxing at the end of the day."
