Why this home stands out
What sets 130 Burns Street apart is its combination of classic mid-century bones and a location that genuinely works for busy lives. Four bedrooms give you real flexibility — a home office, a guest room, or space for a growing family — while two full baths keep the morning routine moving. At 1,584 square feet, the footprint is efficient without feeling cramped, and the 1944 construction era typically means solid framing and mature lot character you simply can't replicate in newer builds.
