Train’s Coming! Get on Board! Move to Cohasset on the South Shore and enjoy the salt air, beaches, ocean and relaxed life style at an affordable price. Although you could move right in this turn of the century Mansard Victorian, it also offers a Golden Opportunity for a rehabilitation project. Your decorative touches and minor updating could turn this home back to the GEM, it originally was. The home has high ceilings, wooden floors, and many other architecturally pleasing features. The current owners have installed a new gas heating/hot water system, replacement windows, and passive solar heat. New insulation has been blown in. The home has 220 amp electrical service and is on town sewer. The original front door opens to a spacious foyer and a beautiful old staircase. The large front to back living room features an antique mantle from a Jerusalem Road estate and built-in cabinets across the end of the room. The elegant dining room has raised panel wainscoting and detailed floor and ceiling moldings. The kitchen features skylights in the eating area and an adjacent four-season family room that opens onto a wrap around deck. There are 2 full baths and laundry facilities. There are four bedrooms: 2 of them could be easily converted into a master suite. Although this property is on a busy street, it features a lovely landscaped, private back yard that abuts conservation land. All this adds up to the perfect opportunity to be part of a premier community that offers good schools, beaches, and recreational facilities. The commute to Boston can be made conveniently either by water shuttle or the soon to be train.
