Renovated home on Atkinson seeks $180K

We’ve seen many homes renovated, listed, and sold in Boston-Edison on the west side of the Lodge this year. We’ve also seen a few in the surrounding streets and neighborhoods. This house has done a complete 180, you might say, as it sold for $17,500 earlier this year. It’s been redone with new systems, fixtures, and finishes and it’s listing for $179,900.

It’s located one street off of Boston-Edison, close to Gordon Park, where new development is headed. The house is just under 2,000 square feet, with four bedrooms and two full and one half bath. The master bath is fitted with a big shower and a claw foot tub. The living room has a fireplace surrounded by built-ins, and the kitchen has new cabinets, counter tops, and fixtures. Also included are a big backyard, a front porch, and a new security system. It will be interesting to see what happens in this neighborhood in the next few years, as developers are starting to renovate more of these homes.
