About This Property

Classic New England charm meets Modern City Living. Imagine morning coffee on a sprawling farmer's porch, afternoons bathed in stained-glass light, and quiet evenings hosted around a wood-burning fireplace. Nestled on a scenic side street in Brighton Center's unofficial "Mansion District," this iconic 1891 home offers an extraordinary canvas for all the above. This home feels like it has been lifted out of a historic district of Cambridge or Chestnut Hill, but at a fraction of the cost! Spanning over 4,000 square feet, the home strikes a perfect balance between grand architectural heritage and modern daily comforts. Intricate woodwork, pocket doors, and two sunrooms honor the home's historic roots, while central air and a bright, open-concept kitchen equipped with Bertazzoni, Liebherr, and Miele appliances caters to today's modern lifestyle. With six spacious bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms on the main three floors and a separate lower level in-law suite (with full bath & kitchenette); the layout offers unmatched versatility. Whether hosting guests, setting up a dedicated home office, or accommodating multi-generational living ' the extra space offers a plethora of possibilities. Outside, there are multiple spaces for relaxing, gardening, and dining alfresco. A quiet sanctuary just moments from endless dining, commerce, and entertainment. Easily accessible to Harvard University, Boston College, MassPike, major roadways, and numerous bus lines. A truly special offering that should not be overlooked! Easy to show.
