Here is the answer for buyers seeking the practicality of city living with the peace, quiet, and green of a private yard. For those who would rather take the train into Boston than sit in traffic, or grocery shop without making a whole afternoon of it. For the ones who love hiking and the outdoors, but can't always fit a day trip into their busy schedules. 25 Wildwood Rd brings those worlds together. A sweet alternative to condo rules and fees, a welcome step into homeownership for renters, and, perhaps best of all, an updated home for buyers hoping to skip the renovation project. Set in a neighborhood of well-kept New England homes, this charming two-bedroom Colonial offers an inviting living room with fireplace, a dedicated dining room beside the spacious kitchen, ready for nights spent hosting. Through the sunroom, you'll find the deck overlooking the private, fenced-in backyard. Upstairs, two large bedrooms, each with each with its own walk-in closet, meet the full bath with tub for a well-rounded floor plan. The unfinished basement offers plenty of storage space as well as an exercise area for the rainy days. A garage adds everyday convenience, and proximity to the West Medford commuter rail, neighborhood shops, and the trails of the Middlesex Fells makes it easy to move between city days and quieter ones.
