Welcome to 10 Governor Road, where 1927 character, wooded privacy and thoughtful updates come together on a quiet cul-de-sac. Sun-drenched living and dining spaces overlook a dappled pollinator garden alive with wildlife. Refinished hardwood floors add warmth, while the renovated kitchen blends style and function. A charming office with French doors overlooks neighborhood green space, a mudroom adds convenience, and three bedrooms and a renovated full bath complete the living space. Since 2023, significant improvements include a new roof, heat pumps, 200-amp electrical service, plumbing and water-pressure upgrades, and stainless steel appliances. Outside, new fencing, established fruit trees and berry bushes, and a pea-stone patio with firepit create a backyard oasis. Enjoy easy access to the Minuteman Bikeway, shops, restaurants, Arlington Reservoir, Great Meadows, parks, MBTA and Route 2. Showings begin Thursday. Offers due Tuesday, 9/29 at 10am. Home is where hearts gather and dreams take root!
