Sargent Road

































Description
Spanning...Set on 1.21 acres in Brookline's coveted Sargent Estate neighborhood, 54 Sargent Road is a distinguished c.1925 Colonial reimagined through a thoughtful, design-driven renovation. The home retains its tall ceilings, preserved millwork, detailed moldings, and four fireplaces, while a considered mix of materials and custom finishes adds warmth throughout. Mature landscaping creates exceptional privacy, giving the property remarkable scale and a true sense of escape just minutes from the city.
Spanning 8,540 square feet, this seven-bedroom, six-and-one-half-bath residence is designed for both everyday family life and large-scale entertaining. An elegant foyer connects the first-floor living spaces. The living room is sophisticated yet inviting, with a wood-burning fireplace framed by a custom Chesneys mantel, built-ins, and window seats; two sets of French doors offer a glimpse into the Conservatory and gardens beyond.
Opposite, the dining room is highlighted by a fireplace, built-in cabinetry, and walls wrapped in de Gournay wallpaper. Beyond the dining room, a fully appointed bar leads to the kitchen. As part of their renovation, the sellers expanded the kitchen to create a distinctive curved breakfast room framed by tall windows overlooking the gardens. Bespoke cabinetry and two islands anchor the kitchen, which opens naturally to a window-lined family room. Together, these spaces bring light, scale, and effortless flow to the heart of the home. A private office and second bar are tucked just beyond.
From the main entry, the house opens to one of its most striking spaces: the Conservatory. A defining addition in the sellers’ renovation, it forms the architectural link between the main house and the formerly detached carriage house and garage. Part conservatory and part mudroom, it has expansive glass doors opening to the garden, a fireplace, and integrated seating and cubbies that make it as beautiful as it is functional. The carriage house includes a three-car garage and, above it, a private guest suite with a spacious bedroom, full bath, kitchenette, and living room lined with French doors opening to a patio with a hot tub.
Back in the main house, a winding staircase framed by a floor-to-ceiling window leads to a generous landing lined with built-in bookshelves and access to a sun deck overlooking the grounds. Set apart on one side of the second floor, the primary suite features a fireplace, bespoke built-ins, two walk-in closets, and a spa-like bath. Down the hall are two en-suite bedrooms, two additional bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath, and a well-equipped laundry room. The third floor offers a versatile great room with built-ins, a natural spot for family gatherings, along with an additional bedroom, full bath, and plenty of storage.
The finished lower level is designed for both fitness and fun. A spacious, dedicated gym provides an impressive space for working out at home, while a recreation room makes room for ping pong and games. The home theater is made for popcorn and movie nights. A wine cellar, half bath, and second laundry room complete the level.
Outside, the grounds feel as carefully designed as the interiors. A bluestone patio with a built-in outdoor kitchen sits directly off the kitchen for easy al fresco dining and entertaining. Beyond, a fountain surrounded by lush plantings brings charm and character to the garden, while an intricate iron gate opens to a pathway leading to an expansive and private level lawn framed by mature trees, perfect for soccer, tag, and everyday play. A fire pit sits just steps away for evenings that linger well past dinner.
The Sargent Estates is one of Brookline's most sought-after neighborhoods, known for its quiet streets, pond, conservation land, and surprising sense of nature so close to the city. Ideally located near Lincoln School and Brookline High, the home is also central to the area's top private schools. The Green D Line is blocks away, while Longwood Medical Area, downtown Boston, Cambridge, and Logan Airport are all within an easy drive.
