This charming two bedroom, one and a half bathroom home is located on a tucked away side street, yet close to town center and all Charlestown has to offer. The curb appeal on this adorable ca. 1880 clapboard home is outstanding with window boxes on two levels and the Bunker Hill flag flying out front. Unique features, such as a raised gas fireplace, tin ceilings, exposed beams, brick accents, and kitchen skylight, set this home apart. The entry floor offers a cozy living room, a kitchen equipped with GE appliances, and a sunny dining area with a gas fireplace. The large private deck, just off the kitchen, is perfect for entertaining. The sunny primary bedroom features crown molding, a tin ceiling, built-in shelving, and two closets. The lower level contains the second bedroom, currently being used as an office, a half bathroom, and a laundry room with storage potential. Amenities include additional storage and a tradesman alley to the front exterior.
