About This Property

Architectural character and modern convenience converge in this thoughtfully updated five bedroom, three full and two half bath Colonial with a two-car garage in Brookline's beloved Fisher Hill neighborhood.

Wonderful details abound throughout this level, including a built-in bench and a vintage decorative fireplace with Delft tile in a second bedroom. On the third floor, there are two more welcoming bedrooms and a third full bath.
