Property details
About 8 May Ave
This charming farm-style home with it's front porch is welcoming you to take a look! Although this home was built in 1912, it has been incredibly maintained and you can tell as soon as you walk through the front door. All molding and woodwork is original and in excellent condition. The ceilings in the living room, dining room and hallway are 10' tall with a grand staircase that greets you at the entrance way. All rooms, including the three bedrooms on the second floor, have lots of natural sunlight because of the over-sized windows that make the home light and bright. The kitchen is a good size that opens to the dining room and has a slider to a fabulous sunroom that then leads to a large deck that overlooks the back yard. Everything about this home is in great shape, including the exterior, the gardens and the back yard and the neighborhood is just steps from the Hollis Elementary school, shopping and other amenities. Come See for Yourself - we're waiting!
