About this home
Welcome to 34 Farrington Ave in Dedham — a home with privacy, potential, and an ideal location. Tucked on a quiet, dead-end street in Riverdale, minutes from the Charles River, parks, and hiking trails, with a short ride to downtown Boston and easy access to Legacy Place, Rte. 95/93, restaurants, and public transportation. This thoughtfully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath home blends original character with modern comfort: gleaming hardwood floors, a cozy wood-burning stove, central air, and a sun-drenched enclosed porch off the kitchen. The updated kitchen with Frigidaire Gallery appliances throughout features a true butler's pantry with 360-degree shelving for extra storage and prep space, flowing easily into the dining and living areas — perfect for entertaining. Recent mechanical upgrades add real peace of mind: a Navien tankless water heater for efficient, endless hot water, a Culligan whole-house water filtration system, and an upgraded 200-amp electrical panel. Step outside to a level, fully fenced yard with plenty of room to relax or host, plus off-street parking for multiple vehicles. A leased solar PV system keeps energy costs low (details available). Beyond the 1,298 SF of finished living space, this home offers exceptional untapped potential: a walk-up attic plus a full basement, together offering an additional roughly 2,318 SF of expansion opportunity per public record — see attached floor plans for the complete layout. A rare opportunity to find potential, convenience, and location all in one place.
