Nestled among Poplar's picturesque row of Capes is this delightful 3 bed with an enviable, fenced, sun drenched, and level yard. The living room is decked out with a mantle over the fireplace and is opposite the sunny formal dining room. The adjoining kitchen incorporates an EIK sized pantry and opens onto the patio. Completing the main level are a full bathroom and bedroom with access to a bonus sunroom, perfect for meditation, play-space, or whatever you fancy. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms; a large primary bed and across the hall, a smaller bedroom perfect for home office or nursery. Out back in the fully enclosed yard you can grill, garden, entertain guests or simply lounge in privacy. Cool off indoors with central A/C.
623 Poplar’s proximity to green space can’t be overstated! With the wooded grounds of the George Wright golf course as a natural backdrop, you’ll feel whisked away from the city while still being within reach of the conveniences of Roslindale Village, just over a mile up the road. Just beyond the golf course lies the nearly 500 acre Stony Brook Reservation full of trails, wooded paths, playgrounds, and parks for everyone’s enjoyment. The much larger Blue Hills Reservation with miles and miles of hiking trails is also just under 5 miles away.
Transportation-wise, when you’re not in your car curving down Poplar towards Roslindale Village (1.5 miles), Catch the 50 bus from Poplar straight to the Orange Line at Forest Hills Station.
Live the single family dream!
Also, what’s it like to live next to a golf course? From our sellers: “The golf course is a great "neighbor". They keep the paths cleared during the winter and it's a wonderful place for walking, taking the dog out, sledding, etc. The tennis course behind our house is literally never used, if anyone likes to play. We often parked in the lot during storms because they do a great job keeping it clear.” FWIW, the house is not directly near any of the holes, so you’re not going to have golf balls landing in your yard.

A little about Roslindale
Roslindale has been one of Boston’s hottest real estate markets in recent years. Between 2020 and 2021, residential values grew at nearly three times the rate of neighboring JP (Ros: 11.3% vs JP: 4.4%). Why? What makes Rozzie, Rozzie? Roslindale has many sections, each with its own character & color. The centerpiece, Roslindale Village, is from where so much of its character emanates. This small, street encircled hamlet bubbles with so many delightful and unique small businesses; go enjoy a stroll! Adams Park (pictured here) comes alive for holiday events, the legendary Farmers market, and many other community centered events throughout the year. Residents enjoy proximity to Peters Hill which is the highest point in Arnold Arboretum.
Boston Home Team Favorites
753 South - Well executed bistro food, casual chic, hideaway patio, and it’s the coolest place to meet up in the Village.
Delfino - Arguably the best Italian in all of Boston. Fight us.
Effie’s Kitchen - Authentic Greek food from gyros to salads and mouthwatering pita bread.
Fornax Bread - Artisan bakery serving coffee and other delights. Rozzie’s best egg sandwich contender?
Square Root Rozzie - Arthouse music cafe meets sandwich board pub. Live music, great beer, good food. THE place for live music in Roslindale.
Sophia’s Grotto - Regular fave for many local Rozidents. Romantically tucked away from the streets in the middle of the Village.
Tony’s Market - Butcher shop + Italian foods & specialty items. “The best” - Tony. He’s right.
Roslindale Farmers Market - It’s a community party every week! Also, it’s Boston’s oldest, longest running Farmers Market.
Distraction Brewery - Delicious locally brewed suds on the first floor of the same building that houses the Bay State Model Train Museum upstairs.
Obosá - Tasty Nigerian fare halfway up Belgrade, on the road to West Roxbury. Get the puff puff and/or the joloff!
Pleasant Cafe - A classic mid-century throwback restaurant with legendary pizza.
