That’s 17 Brettwood Rd. Located in a fabulous neighborhood between Belmont Cntr & Cushing Sq, this 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath home meets all the criteria. There’s a sense of calm when you enter the foyer, and glancing left or right, you are invited into the living spaces - one more cozy & the other large and bathed in natural light. The sizable and well-appointed kitchen, beautiful dining room & dynamite sunroom take up the back of the house and flow seamlessly into one another. Upstairs, you’ll find an abundance of bedrooms with a grand primary suite, complete w laundry & sitting area. There are work-from-home areas & 2 guest suites — one encompasses the third floor & the other, accessed by a separate staircase, is just perfect for guests or private home office. When the right home comes along, you just know it.
