Designed by prominent Boston architects Hartwell and Richardson and spanning over 6300 sf of interior living space, this property preserves striking original architectural features, from original double doors used for horse drawn carriages to a turreted top level living area featuring soaring cathedral ceilings, restored beams, skylights, and sweeping vistas of the lushly landscaped 0.58 acre lot. Modern touches also abound, from the stone-capped kitchen island in the open-plan upper-level entertaining space to the two-story fireplace in the expansive downstairs living area. An entertainer’s paradise, this property offers two equally stunning living, dining and kitchen spaces, plus a wonderful newly refinished auxiliary lounge on the lower level. In addition to five generous bedrooms and three and a half full baths, the house also offers a brilliant built-in office or library, a second office / workspace in a repurposed carraige stall, and a versatile workshop or art studio. The one-of-a-kind “jockey walk” art gallery off the main foyer offers an inspiring spot to showcase an art collection. The house offers exceptional indoor-outdoor connections including a luminous family room or sun room off the garden, two generous decks, multiple balconies, a stone patio, and a serene and unexpectedly secluded backyard given the dynamic in-town location. A graceful circular driveway and two garage bays offer plenty of parking for a crowd. Numerous recent updates, including five-zone 2024 HVAC, five new skylights; many new light fixtures; new recessed lights, sheet rock and new or newly refinished hardwoods in all the bedrooms. Exceptionally well located on a private way easily accessible to premier shopping, dining, multiple Green Line stops, downtown Boston, the Longwood Medical area, and renowned public and private schools. This thrilling property is like nothing you’ve ever seen---a serene oasis nestled in one of Brookline's most desirable locations with the best of city living at your doorstep. An incredible opportunity.
