Home Buying

Gut-renovated property comes with four bedrooms, 1.5 baths, built-ins, and modern conveniences.

You can channel your inner Joanna Gaines in this Framingham farmhouse kitchen.

The renovated 182-square-foot kitchen at 1458 Concord St. in Framingham features checkered floors, stainless steel appliances, and two-tone solid wood cabinetry inside a dream space for any aspiring chef. An island with quartzite countertops (the same material used for the backsplash) completes the space. 

“They bought this as a fixer-upper in 2019, and put blood, sweat, and tears into this thing for the last five years,” said Sam Reifman-Packett of the RP Group at Compass, who has the listing. The four-bedroom, 1.5-bath home is on the market for $785,000.

 The 2,301-square-foot single-family home, which dates to 1897, blends historic charm with coveted modern upgrades.

“It’s just very tastefully done,” Reifman-Packett said. “The work they did here has more of a timeless vibe.”

There’s a 232-square-foot screened porch off the kitchen that serves as the entry point to the home. The porch connects to the 96-square-foot mudroom, an impeccably designed space with checkered floors, a built-in bench, and storage. You’ll also find the washer and dryer in this space, as well as a back staircase to the second floor. 

Entertain in the elegant 162-square-foot dining room, where a chandelier that looks like an upside down lily poised to open complements the dark ceiling and freshly painted walls, molding, and built-ins.

The stunning living room, a 388-square-foot space, features restored bird’s-eye maple floors and enjoys natural light from six windows. Reifman-Packett said the “extra-wide” space almost feels like two rooms combined into one.

Tired of winter? Bask in the warmth in the 177-square-foot heated sunroom, which boasts a wall of windows and a door to the yard.

Out in the foyer, a black staircase with a stained-glass window leads to the bedroom level. Two of the secondary bedrooms are on the smaller side, but both have fun wallpaper. The primary bedroom, which measures 221 square feet, has a beautiful bay window. The bathroom the bedrooms share was taken “down to the studs” and now boasts a marble shower, new flooring, and a single vanity.

On the opposite side of the second story, you’ll find the fourth bedroom, which measures 214 square feet, is reachable via the back staircase or the primary bedroom, and connects to a 96-square-foot office. 

The basement is unfinished, and the home sits on 0.43 of an acre.

The Framingham home is about 10 minutes by car from Framingham Station on the commuter rail,

The MBTA Commuter Rail is about a 10-minute drive away, while the head of the Cochituate Brook Reservation Trail is less than one-tenth of a mile away.
