Chelmsford

This updated village colonial is full of charm and function, starting with a mudroom big enough to catch every last wet boot and dripping coat. Inside, the kitchen shines with granite counters, plenty of storage, and an L-shape that’s perfect for prepping dinner while friends perch on stools to chat. It flows right into a cozy seating nook and the living room — so the cook never misses the conversation.Out front, a welcoming porch invites you to sip coffee and watch the world go by. The first floor even has a bedroom for flexibility, while upstairs you’ll find two roomy bedrooms and a refreshed bath. Top it off with a one-car garage and full basement — space for all the extras life brings.
