There’s more than meets the eye at this Cape Cod in Arlington. Built in 1944, the home at 5210 25th Pl. N. is just under 2,500 square feet. 

Located in the Yorktown neighborhood, this three-bedroom, three-bathroom home includes three levels, a fenced-in backyard, and driveway. This property is currently listed for $1,250,000.

In between the family and living room is a flex space. The central location in the home makes it a great spot for an office. Or you can turn it into a formal dining room with storage for glassware in the built-in cabinets.

At the back of the home, you’ll find the family room. Not only do the windows provide plenty of light and views of the backyard, but the space also connects to the screened-in porch for entertaining. The room also includes an electric fireplace and a beverage niche.

Inside the expanded kitchen are plenty of upgrades. The cooking space includes updated countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a dual-fuel gas range. In addition to countertop seating, the kitchen opens up into a breakfast area for whenever you need room for a sit-down meal.
