About this home
Welcome to 55 Academy Street, a rare chance to settle into one of Braintree’s most coveted neighborhoods, just steps from Thayer Academy. This well-cared-for Colonial is packed with character and is ready for its next owner. Enter into the large front-facing sunroom, perfect for morning coffee and a good book, from there you are greeted by original woodwork, a spacious living and dining area with gorgeous hardwood floors and a sightline all the way to the back of the main floor. Off the living area you'll find a second dining space, the main floor's half bath, and a bright kitchen overlooking the backyard. Just off the kitchen is a large rear deck, perfect for entertaining, with stairs down to the yard and direct access to the driveway and detached garage. Upstairs features three bedrooms, including the spacious primary bedroom, along with the home’s full bathroom and more period details. Downstairs, the full basement houses the washer and dryer alongside abundant storage space.You simply cannot beat this location in Braintree, close to Hollis Elementary, South Braintree Square, and French's Common, with easy access to the Red Line, I-93, and Route 3. Opportunities in this neighborhood rarely come along. Don't miss your chance!
