Home of the Week: 51 Chickering Rd. [PHOTOS]

While this Chickering Road home dates back to the 1950s, it sports modern features that many prospective buyers are in the market for: granite kitchen countertops, new windows and a new roof, central air conditioning and original hardwood.

The hardwood on the second floor, which has four bedrooms, is underneath carpet, but is ready to be rediscovered.

The home starts with an eat-in kitchen and an adjacent dining room with a built-in China cabinet. A three-season porch comes off the dining room and overlooks a beautiful backyard full of lush green grass and mature trees that give privacy and shade.

Hardwood moldings and door frames beautify the first floor, which also has a living room with a large window in the front of the house. It features a gas fireplace and built-in bookcases and has hardwood flooring.

The home's largest bedroom has an on-suite bathroom in addition to the floor's other full bathroom.

The finished basement has a walk-out to the large backyard and has plenty of room for a home office or children's playroom.
